Shore Lodge by Susan Specht Oram – Review by Rebeca Elliott Figueiras

Shore Lodge: A high-stakes psychological thriller by Susan Specht Oram
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is my first book by the author, and I had high hopes. I was not disappointed. I really enjoyed the plot of this story and the way in which the author built the tension.

The characters are well-written, and they stand out from the get-go. The emotions Jacklyn feels soon becomes yours, especially her pain. It’s a skill I admire.

I loved Jacklyn’s character, despite her grief (and then on top of that the betrayal and further heartbreak) she finds the strength to build up her courage and fight. I truly felt for her and quickly got invested in her story and how it would turn out.

I would have loved to have seen a more ‘just’ ending but c’est la vie. It’s more realistic and frightening this way.

This may be my first book by this author, I will ensure it won’t be my last – I look forward to more!
