If you enjoyed the film Molly’s Game, or anything poker related, this book will appeal to you. Actually, I’ve never played poker in my life but a good psychological thriller every now and then provides a great read. A young woman has to deal with redundancy, the change of circumstance leads her to online gambling and the dangers that come with it. The setting reminded me of the dodgy card place in Twin Peaks and the backdrop is as cold as the antagonists heart. Great twist included. I could not get to sleep for page-turning this book, and when I did I had nightmares!

Page-turner-ability rating 5/5 stars
