This is my first time reading the author. Clearly, I've missed out on something.
Do Not Disturb is a great thriller, fast paced, very dark at times, disturbing as hell, unsettling and full of twist and turns. This book has all the key ingredients of a great thriller. I loved the setting, a remote part of Wales. I love the idea of running a B&B somewhere like that. I was totally invested in the characters and their situation. Do Not Disturb lulled me into a false sense of security when Kirsty is reunited with the niece she hasn't seen for years due to terrible secrets and decides to be adult and let bygones be bygones. But then other people start to turn up connected to her niece and things go a little mental. Do Not Disturb explores a range of topics including mental illness, murder and domestic violence. The last quarter of the book is when things really go mad. What a great book!
