Book Details
Title: Stench
Author: A.B. Morgan
Publisher: Bloodhound Books
Publication Date: May 10, 2018
Rory Norton didn’t always make his living as a motorbike instructor and he went to great lengths to leave his past life behind, to start again.
He thought he had succeeded, until the body of a missing woman is discovered under the floor of his cottage. Only then do the guilt and shame of his wife’s mysterious, untimely death and the accusations about his connection to the missing woman combine to break him.
The question is not how the missing woman died but why, and who is responsible?
Sometimes the truth stinks.
My Review
This is my first A.B. Morgan book and it was a good one. I loved the title and the cover...very cool!! The story starts with a body of a missing woman being discovered under the floor of Rory Norton's cottage. Hooked me from the beginning!
The main characters were Rory and Anna. Rory makes a living as a motorbike instructor. Anna is an investigative reporter. They meet each other when Anna takes a motorbike course taught by Rory. I liked Rory as a character and I found myself feeling sorry for Anna because of her troubled backstory.
The author was able to hold my interest from the beginning. I would recommend this book to those who love psychological thrillers. I will definitely read more by this author. Thanks to Bloodhound Books and A.B. Morgan for the opportunity to review this book and participate in #BlogBlitz.
Author Bio
Alison worked for the NHS for nearly thirty years, twenty of those within mental health services, at the front line. She eventually became the manager of a countywide community service for people experiencing their first episode of psychosis. Much to her frustration, her heart decided to develop an electrical fault, which forced her to sit down for more than five minutes and her career juddered to a halt. Not one for thumb twiddling, she took up position in front of a computer with a plan to write a set of clinical guidelines for assessment of psychosis but instead a story, which had been lurking in her mind for several years, came tumbling out.
Her first two novels, A Justifiable Madness and Divine Poison, were inspired by her career as a psychiatric nurse and her fascination with the extremes of human behaviour. Then she stepped sideways and wrote a gritty psychological thriller, The Camera Lies. All published by Bloodhound Books, Alison’s novels have received excellent reviews and inspired many an interesting debate. Above all, they are entertaining reads and, despite dark subjects, will raise a smile.
