Knife Edge is a fast paced thriller, set in Belfast, which opens with Nic and her friend being kidnapped and brutally tortured. What ensues is a frantic cat and mouse game as Nic escapes and tries to catch her abductor.

The opening chapter was intense, very gory and had me immediately hooked however from there on in I started to begin to lose interest. While the story is frantically paced and holds plenty of tension, unfortunately I found it all a little too much all at once. To avoid spoilers for those who may enjoy it I will not go into detail but overall I found the storyline progression too far fetched and I found it too hard to suspend disbelief.

Not for me, but great if you want a gritty fast paced thriller that you don’t have to put too much thought into.
