Lock Every Door by Riley Sager
3.0
On paper, I loved this plot. In practice, I didn't love the execution. There was a lot of telling, not showing, which at times ruined the suspense. Unfortunately for this book, I also read Home Before Dark first, which is (in my opinion) a lot better, so I was constantly comparing the two as I read this book.
The ending did actually manage to surprise me a bit, and I thought it was creative. Again though, the execution was only okay. It didn't have that page-turning, can't-put-it-down quality you want a thriller to have.
