Review: The Killing Game

The Killing Game by J.S. Carol
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a story. How going out for lunch can change your whole life.
​This book actually left me thinking of this scenario way long after I'd finished reading it.
​It may not have helped my cause being sat in a local restaurant waiting for my hubby to arrive, I sat reading this on my kindle. (not while eating, just while waiting for hubz) But then all through lunch I kept looking at the door weighing everyone up as they come in.

​Out lunching in a restaurant fit for the Hollywood fabulous. Business, Pleasure the guy that walks in with a bomb strapped to his chest really couldn't give two hoots why you are there. The fact is you are there, and for him, it's now time to play a game. A game of life.
​What would you do to stay alive. Well this is what some of Hollywood's Elite are to figure out.

​Part way through this book I was thinking it might go around the 4/5 star read for me, as I was enjoying it. But the more I got into the book, the more I enjoyed it and by the time I was getting near the end, I knew it would be wrong to give it anything less that a 5 star rating.

​So many questions racing around your head while reading, as I say not only What would you do? But Why is this bomber doing it, what can motivate someone into going into a restaurant and holding innocent people hostage.
​It really does get your heart racing, and maybe your blood pressure to. Make sure you have some nails to bite while reading this.

​A book I really would recommend without hesitation.

​A super big thank you to the publishers for an ARC of this book.

It's all about choices. Choose to live, Choose to die. it's your choice, or is it?

​Dare I admit this is the first book I've read by this author, I know James Carol is writing here as J.S. Carol, but I haven't read any James Carol books previously. I'm sure that is now about to change as believe it or not when investigating this, I discovered that I have 3 of James books on my Kindle which I purchased in 2014 to 2015. How bad is that, having 3 books of a series I have purchased that I have not yet read.
