Final Cut: A Novel

By S. J. Watson

A gripping new psychological thriller from S. J. Watson, the New York Times–bestselling author of Before I Go to Sleep, in which a documentary filmmaker travels to a sleepy fishing village to shoot her new film and encounters a dark mystery surrounding the disappearance of a local girl. 

They tried to hide the truth. But the camera never lies . . .

Blackwood Bay. An ordinary place, home to ordinary people. It used to be a buzzing seaside destination. But now, ravaged by the effects of dwindling tourism and an economic downturn, it’s a ghost town—the perfect place for Alex to shoot her new documentary. But the community is deeply suspicious of her intentions. After all, nothing unusual ever happens in Blackwood Bay—or does it?

Well it is well written and the blurb on the back sounded promising, but oh my it is sadly a boring book that goes on forever, the mystery of who Alex actually isn’t worth the time it takes to get the explanation.
Now I know why it was a BOGO book at Barnes and Noble.
The other book I got was even worse.

Finally read my first book by this author. Plenty of twists and secrets to be revealed. Loved the setting and the video the author made perfectly set the mood. Will definitely be reading more by him.
