Hidden by Lisa Sell

A Bloodhound Book Review

The truth lies in the darkest places...

Jen Taylor has a secret.

In 1987 the body of fourteen-year-old Kelly was found on a railway track and Jen believes she was responsible for her death.

Now an adult, Jen is approached by Kelly’s mother, who asks her to help investigate her daughter’s murder. 

But Jen is hiding more than anyone knows.

As the investigation is reopened by Jen, along with her former friend Claire, secrets from the past come to light and when another murder takes place, the case takes a sinister turn.

Did Jen really kill Kelly and can she ever right the wrongs of the past?

Lisa Sell's Hidden is a crime thriller which you won't be able to put down, it's perfect for readers who enjoy books like Claire McGowan's What You Did and C.L. Taylor's Sleep. As well as for fans of authors like Louise Jensen, Rachel Abbott and Heidi Perks. 


My Review:

This is a super debut book. I want to keep a lookout for this author's books. I loved the 80's theme type flashbacks that worked well with the current updates/present time. I was thrilled this wasn't fluffy, it's actually well woven and complexed. So many secrets, such nice twists and turns. I can't share them with you, because I wouldn't want to spoil your read! I do feel that the cover could use an upgrade, but the story was true to its promise of a gripping tale.

About The Author:
Lisa Sell is a thriller, crime, and mystery writer who also scribbles short stories. 

Throughout her writing career she’s blogged about the twists and turns on her site: www.lisasell.co.uk 

To combat writer's bum and keep mentally fit, Lisa is a runner. The consequence is she’s now a running bore but is proud of her achievements.

When she’s reading, Lisa practically hoovers up books. The to-be-read pile has become a tower, threatening to topple on her when she’s sleeping. 

Music rocks Lisa’s world too, particularly a good eighties tune. If lost, you’ll find Lisa in a DeLorean, headed for her favourite decade.

Lisa’s cats, Feegle and Wullie, try to help her write but often fail. The furry pests demand attention and desk space. Lisa is currently applying for cat wrangling to be recognised as an Olympic sport. 

Lisa is a happy pup to be part of the Bloodhound Books team. Just don’t tell the cats.
