Thanks to ZooLoo’s Book Tours for my invitation to the tour. This is a book I bought and here is my honest review.
Too much knowledge can be deadly.
Ten years ago, a serial killer’s reign ended. Students at the Oxford Carroll University were safe. Until now…
The Professor is back. His Victorian literature-themed murders are more shocking than ever.
Jane, a mature student, studies in fear. An invitation to Glynnholme, the estate of the reclusive scholar, Evangeline Glynn, is a welcome distraction.
With each visit, dark secrets are revealed. The Professor is no stranger to Glynnholme. Jane wasn’t chosen by chance.
As the death count rises, The Professor prepares a final lesson. Words are powerful. They give him a killing purpose.
Words written in blood could end Jane’s life. Can she discover who The Professor is before it’s too late?
My Review
Lisa Sell never fails to write a book that I can’t put down! I have been waiting for a new book from her for so long. I was so eager to read The Professor, so as soon as it landed on my Kindle, I put everything aside and started it.
A unique plot and characters whom I got invested in pretty quick make this a read that stands out for me. I was gripped from the start. Vivid details and a great inclusion of the classics all come together so well, I was with these characters from page one.
I do adore a psychological thriller because I always have to try to work out who the killer is. Well, not this time! I thought I had it, but nope! The tension was so taut. Again, Lisa Sell has woven a story that had me glued. I have to say I came away from this book wanting to read those classics mentioned, too. All I can say is that I don’t have time for any other reading apart from my blog tours, so they really will have to wait.
A dark and tense atmospheric read that had me on the edge of my seat. I couldn’t get enough of this story. I do have to say I stayed up so late to finish it, even being a ‘school night’. I definitely needed a nap the day after. If you love your psychological thrillers, dark and unique, this is a book you must read!
