Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this review are my own.
Daughter is a deliciously disturbing novel about a girl who finds out her father is a psychopathic killer who will only give the names of his victims to her. He isn't just going to hand them over though, and what happens will leave you chilled and disturbed.
This was so good! It is well paced and packed with tension. I couldn't help but devour it as quickly as I possibly could. I was so invested in the communication between Scarlet and her father. The atmosphere is so creepy and unsettling it just puts you in a chokehold where you need the rest of the story.
Where this book lost a bit of momentum for me was at the end. Things went on a little long for me but that is just a personal preference. I prefer more of an abrupt ending with a couple lose ends rather than a clean, well explained ending.
Overall, I enjoyed this so much. Try this one if you're looking for a psychological thriller with a creepy psychopathic killer who also has a God complex.
