My Review of Nine Lives by Peter Swanson
Probably not really a fair review as I read this spread over at least a fortnight and due to the amount of characters got lost a few times.
Only really warmed or cared about 1 of the 9 people on the list and nearly didn’t finish the book.
Like I say though, I read it over quite a long period, reading it in one or two sittings may have helped but I wasn’t really hooked enough to do that.

Reviewed by Terry Simmonds
The author of Rules for Perfect Murders is back – with a chilling and fiendish puzzle of a novel everyone will be talking about next Spring.
If you’re on the list you’re marked for death.
The envelope is unremarkable. There is no return address. It contains a single, folded, sheet of white paper.
The envelope drops through the mail slot like any other piece of post. But for the nine complete strangers who receive it – each of them recognising just one name, their own, on the enclosed list – it will be the most life altering letter they ever receive. It could also be the last, as one by one, they start to meet their end.
But why?
