I never saw the end coming

The Silent Surrogate: A Psychological Suspense Thriller, my sixth amazing read from author N.L. Hinkens. I enjoyed the outstanding suspense story-line with its intricately woven twists and turns, I never saw the end coming! Norma (N.L.) Hinkens is on my radar of great authors! I was given an Audible copy of this book and am voluntarily reading & reviewing it. Narrator Mitzi Pirkey's narration adds to the book's enjoyment. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

A very entertaining psychological thriller!

Once again N. L. Hinkens has created a psychological thriller that takes you all the way to the end just knowing how it is going to come out only to find you really don’t have a clue. To say I enjoyed this story would be an understatement. Listening to Mitzi Pirkey’s narration further enhanced an already excellent story. If you enjoy psychological thrillers with plenty of twists, grab a copy of this book – especially the audiobook and settle in for a very enjoyable afternoon.

I found this to be interesting

A story full of lies , deceipt & mental health issues. The characters were great and the narrator was awesome. The ending was not what I expected at all. A great story full of suspense.

So Good

This was an exciting read. It kept me hooked with the secrets and hiding. I wasn’t sure where it was going.

Nora was out for revenge after what happened to her son. I was so intrigued every time we got a glimpse of what happened. Her revenge plan was fascinating to watch come together. The ending was unexpected and perfect, in my opinion.

Mitzi's narration was really good, a bit slow for me but not a problem when I increased the speed.

The Ending was way too quick

The Story was just okay, entertaining enough, but the twist and ending came all in about 10 minutes and it was over. There was no build up, or suspicion planted early on that would have you guessing. Books like these need to temp you and make you think that you JUUUST might know the twist, to find out that you are wrong in the end and surprised. This just came out of nowhere and then it was over. Also, the narrator was very slow, I had to make sure that I had the right speed on my phone, because she sounded almost a beat too slow.
