Exposure - what secret needs to be discovered?

Exposure
By Brandilyn Collins
Published at Zondervan

About the book
When your worst fear comes true. Someone is watching Kaycee Raye. But who will believe her? Everyone knows she’s a little crazy. Kaycee’s popular syndicated newspaper column pokes fun at her own paranoia and multiple fears. The police in her small town are well aware she makes money writing of her experiences. Worse yet, she has no proof of the threats. Pictures of a dead man mysteriously appear in her home—then vanish before police arrive. Multisensory images flood Kaycee’s mind. Where is all this coming from? Maybe she is going over the edge. High action and psychological suspense collide in this story of terror, twists, and desperate faith. The startling questions surrounding Kaycee pile high. Her descent to answers may prove more than she can survive.

My Thoughts
Exposure – what does it mean? According to the Webster dictionary it can be exposing a fact or a condition or disclosing something from the past.

The book is quite interesting actually. For about three quarter of the book, I thought that I was following various people who would meet each other at some point. But the more I read, the less they were crossing each other.

In a way, this is what the author did… Brandilyn was able to keep me interested during the whole book. I love suspense book and this was different than the other books I have read so far. There is lots of suspense and action going from the main character to other characters at every chapters of the book. Back and forth, from one chapter to the other, you wonder what will happen to all these character. I won’t tell you what is happening but I was surprised and captivated by the conclusion. The epilogue also keeps us wanting for more… and makes me wonder if some day we will see a sequel of this novel.

Also, the author used the town where her own mother lives as a background for the novel. Still in this town you could find Tastebuds with their brick-oven pizzas and old-fashioned soda fountain. If I even go to Wilmore, Kentucky, I’ll make sure to visit this place. Sounds delicious don’t you think?

In conclusion, this novel is well written and will keep you wondering at every page what will happen and who has done it. I strongly recommend it if you like suspense.

Exposure is available everywhere even at amazon.ca and indigo.ca.
