The Thin Place has three stories woven together that take place at various times throughout history. As you read on, you eventually discover the connection between the three. This book also takes advantage of the ever-popular somewhat unreliable narrator combined with some subtle thriller vibes.
The story takes place in Scotland and explores a bridge there where many dogs have jumped to their death (this is a real place in Scotland) and a house near the Bridge called Overtoun. The author tells the tale of the thin place where - the place where the world of the living and the world of the dead has a thin barrier.
The book is filled with intrigue and turns - even toward the end when you think you’ve solved it, there’s still another twist. Not only does the author delve into the mystery, but also familial relationships, which makes it more interesting than a standard thriller. I will say in the beginning, it was a bit slow to start and hard to keep track of who the three characters were, but once it takes off, I finished reading it within a few hours because I couldn’t put it down. Overall, it’s worth a read!
