Book Description
How far would you go to protect your child?
I knew something was wrong. It’s a mother’s instinct.
I could tell when my son started hiding things from me. He used to walk to school with a mischievous grin on his beautiful face. Now he avoids eye contact and keeps his head down.
Since I discovered he’s being bullied by a classmate, I’ve spent every day worrying, my stomach churning with anxiety from the moment he leaves the house to the second he walks back through the door.
Everyone keeps telling me I’m overreacting, but I won’t risk my child’s safety. My husband and I try to talk to the other boy’s parents, but it only makes things worse…
Then our precious child is hurt. Enough is enough. It has to stop. Even if that means taking matters into our own hands.
Because we know the truth about the family targeting our son – it’s not the first time they’ve done this.
So the question is, exactly how far will we go to get revenge?
A nail-biting, page-turning psychological thriller from the number one bestselling author of The Doctor’s Wife. If you love Behind Closed Doors, Gone Girl and The Housemaid, you’ll be hooked on The Couple’s Revenge.
BLOG TOUR REVIEW
Review for 'The Couple's Revenge' by Daniel Hurst.
Read and reviewed via NetGalley for Daniel Hurst, Bookouture publishers and Bookouture anonymous
Publication date 4th January 2024.
This is the seventh book I have read by this author. I have previously read 'The Doctor's Wife', 'My Daughter's Boyfriend', 'The Holiday Home', 'The Doctor's Widow', 'Her Husbands Mistake' and 'The Doctor's Mistress' and would highly recommend them all!!!
This novel consists of a prologue, 35 chapters and an epilogue. The chapters are short to medium in length so easy to read 'just one more chapter' before bed...OK, I know yeah right, but still just in case!
'The Couple's Revenge' discusses some topics that may upset some readers or may not be suitable for others. I like to point this out ahead of time in my reviews so you can judge if this book is for you or not. In this book Daniel discusses/includes suicide and bullying.
YET ANOTHER ABSOLUTELY ADDICTIVE, THRILLING, UNPUTDOWNABLE HEART RACING AND EXPLOSIVE BOOK FROM THIS EPIC AUTHOR THAT WILL KEEP YOU UP LATE AT NIGHT UNTIL YOU TURN THE LAST PAGE!!
Wow!!! This book is fantastically written and had me hook, line and sinker from beginning to end. The descriptions were so in depth and vivid that the hair on my arms was standing on the ends and my heart was pounding throughout. The synopsis, title and cover were perfect for the storyline.
Another HUGE success by the extremely talented Daniel Hurst!! Daniel is one of those extremely talented authors who has written so many books but yet each one I have read has been just as gripping,unique and explosive as the next!! How he does it I have no idea but whatever you are doing Daniel, keep doing it!!! I absolutely loved this unique page turning explosive page turner. I was absolutely absorbed throughout this psychological thriller. It is filled with tension, drama, family, suspense, secrets, heartache, revenge, and omg the twist!!! I DID NOT see the twists coming at all and there were more than one!!! Just when I think everything had been worked out and things were settling down BOOM there was another bombshell!! A MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS Daniel!! It is getting harder and harder to shock me but by God you did that over and over and over!!! What an ending!!! One of the most gripping unputdownable nerve wracking psychological thrillers I have EVER read!!! You have one hell of a talent and I cannot wait to get hold of your previous and future books in this series. I cannot remember the last time I was so hooked by a book but you managed that big time!!! I loved that the book is told from different perspectives and each of their stories/chapters were perfectly weaved together to show us everything that is going on and how each of the characters are thinking and feeling throughout. The storyline is filled with shocks, suspense, tension, deceit, and everything you could ask for in a psychological thriller!!. There was so much going on and it was very fast paced and kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. The surrounding atmosphere was absolutely perfect and the narrative ensures you are completely absorbed into the storyline with the characters coming to life all around you thanks to Daniel's evocative writing skills. If you are ever in a reading slump then any of Daniels books are guaranteed to pull you out of it!!!! I lost count how many times I had funny looks shouting out don't do it as I was walking on the school run listening to this amazing book!! This is one of those books that I really can't say much about the storyline without giving anything away so I'll try to be very careful. It is definitely a thought provoking book and makes one you think how far you would go to protect your family. One thing I absolutely despise in life is bullies and my heart goes out to Jacob, his family and the family of Zoe in this book. It really is difficult to say too much about this storyline without giving anything away. However, what I will say is that I am happy with what happened and believe that was the only way to stop certain events as obviously no lessons were learnt and no remorse was given. Personally, and many would disagree but I would do the same and more in the situation especially considering the past!!! Argh!!! Right I won't say any more but what I will say is that Daniel deals with difficult topics such as suicide and bullying in this book and does an amazing job of showing the effects bullying can have on not just the victim but their family and he weaves them into an absolutely explosive storyline. During the book there are so many butterfly affects which goes to show how one small action can have such a large ripple affect which could continue for years. My heart was absolutely in my throat during one moment, especially as a mother of a 11 year old boy myself. Have I left you in suspense? Well you'll just have to pick up your copy and find out yourself!!! This book is absolutely addictive and I read it in one sitting. It kept me on the edge of my seat, biting my nails with my heart absolutely pounding throughout especially at the end! I really am looking forward to the next book by this extremely talented author. A gripping, all consuming addictive page turner!!!
Clear your schedule before you start as I read this in one sitting as I could not put it down!! Practically every chapter ended on a cliff hanger so no way could I put it down!! Absolutely hooked!! I would absolutely love to see this turned into a movie!!!!
The characters were all strong and realistic and thanks to Daniel's absolutely fantastic writing skills they all come to life when you are turning the pages, leaving me want to do certain things to certain characters!!! The characters create a mix of emotions in the reader from anger to heartbreak, despair to shock and so much between!! My heart went out to Jacob, his family and the family of Zoe.....I really can't say why or anything else in regards to the book itself as it's too easy to give anything away. I will stop here as I will give too much away if I say anymore and I really don't want to spoil it for future readers so I wont say anything else and let other readers make their own minds up about how they feel about the characters.. Regardless of whether you love or hate the characters they all worked perfectly together to make this an addictive and explosive storyline!!
This is exactly why you are one of my favourite male authors Daniel! An absolute must read author!! I cannot wait to read all your previous and future books!! Here's to your next success 🥂
Make sure you read to the very end of the book to read the prologue and first chapter of Daniel's 'The Doctor's Wife' which I have actually read myself and highly recommend!!!
Overall another absolutely heart racing, suspense filled, unputdownable addictive page turner psychological thriller filled with twists from the king of thrillers Daniel Hurst!
