The Dying Game by Asa Avdic is such a unique read! I wasn't sure what I was in for and I loved it!
This wild ride takes place in 2037 where 7 people have been chosen to participate in a 48-hour challenge for an intelligence, top-secret position for the "Union of Friendship." Anna Francis, our lead, is one of them. She has her issues - she has a daughter but doesn't see her that much. Why? Well she worked for a non-profit and did some kind of intelligence work and she SAW stuff. Bad stuff. And she did bad stuff too. You'll find out more when you read the book...
But things take a strange turn. Not everything is as it seems... and can we even trust our narrator?
This suspenseful book was SO GOOD. I normally guess the endings and I did not see this one coming. I love a great surprise! Definitely a must read for readers who love thrillers but want something a little unique and different.
Four out of five stars.
