Black Canvas by Laura Rossi – Review by Kerry Carr

Black Canvas by Laura Rossi
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow I really don’t know where to start with this book. It is definately an amazing psychological Thriller which will keep you gripped from start to finish. The author does such an amazing job with the characters and the story tells and there are so many twists and turns that you even find yourself questioning your own sanity. With so many stories you never know who is telling the truth and which stories are lies. The author does an amazing job at building so many smoke screens into this book that when you think you have a handle on it something changes your views and ideas all over again.

Aria is a psychologist. After losing one of her patients she is struggling to come to terms with it, feeling like it was her fault and that she missed something. Added to this confusion the stress of a divorcee from her cheating husband and Aria has  a lot to deal with. When the police call her in to speak to a young woman found injured on the streets Aria realises this is something big and very dangerous. As she finds herself getting more dragged into her new case she also relives her old case and her patient that died. Could the two cases be linked in some way?
As we delve deeper into her patients minds and also see a side to Aria coming out. A side that has demons and holds secrets of their own. Through the steps Aria learns how freeing it is when we sometimes wear a mask that is different to the mask we wear everyday.
