Description:

 

It starts with a chance sighting: a face from her past, someone Beth hasn’t thought about for years. Suddenly she feels a terrifying wave of panic – the flash of a memory, of crushing weight and pain, and the flicker of firelight and smoke. Something in Beth’s past has been disturbed… And nothing will ever be the same again.



You've started to remember…
Beth never had any reason to doubt her peaceful, happy upbringing. Then she suddenly starts getting awful flashes of an event from her past – a vicious attack from an unknown person. And she thinks it could be more than just a nightmare. But how could she forget something this big?

Someone wants you to forget…
With no husband or boyfriend to turn to, she asks her trusted family and old friends for reassurance, only to hear that it must all be in her head. Meanwhile, the flashes get stronger, more frightening, and more details start to come back to her – details she knows she couldn’t have invented. But these are people who have known her all her life and have her best interests at heart. Who should she believe?

What will you risk to discover the truth?
Beth is determined to understand the meaning of these memories even if it means going it alone. But is she prepared for what she will find? Because the truth will ruin someone’s life – and they will stop at nothing to keep the past forgotten.

A heart-stopping psychological suspense novel that asks: who would you trust the most? Your friends? Your family? Or your own mind? Fans of T.M. Logan, Claire McGowan and Lisa Jewell will be gripped by Close My Eyes.


 

Throughout Beverley’s many years spent working in advertising and PR, she had always wanted to write fiction. In 2015 a creative writing course inspired her debut novel, Seeking Eden, which was published in 2017. The sequel, Eden Interrupted, soon followed. Beverley’s third novel – her first with Bookouture – fulfils a long-time goal to publish a psychological thriller.

Born in Yorkshire, and raised in Kent, Beverley currently lives in West Sussex with her partner and their adorable terrier. When not writing, you’ll find her reading, walking the dog or listening to rock music.

Close My Eyes 
By 
Beverley Harvey
Review 
By
Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews

First, I want to thank Beverley Harvey, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review. 


I am glad I didn’t Close My Eye’s during Beverley Harvey’s book or you would miss all intense scenes and excitement at the end of the book! WOW!! Was this book a rollercoaster ride of emotions!! 


Oh how I just loved Beth’s story and the sick sense and pure terror she had around the Bink brothers. When they first ran into each other for the first time in the story even he creeped me out. The mystery of finding out why she was feeling this way was a very intense storyline that kept you on your toes. 


One thing that irked me in the book is when someone decides to break up with someone why does everyone else ask if they are ok? Why do they always push them to go back with someone they don’t want to be with because their friends liked them? If that person didn’t want to be with that person they wouldn’t have broken up with them. 


I thought it was bittersweet how the father would remiss about the good times he had with his late wife. 


The names Beverley chose in this book were thought up creatively outside the box! I absolutely adored the name Gemma, Guy, Nessa, and Zara! They are so pretty and not used often in many books I have read. 


Close My Eyes brings up important subjects like anxiety attacks, alcoholism, jealousy,  sexual assault, sexual offender, PTSD, rape and how important counseling is.


The book jumps from modern day to 1994 to get more of the Binks brothers and Beth’s storyline. 


Beverley writes an incredibly intense, heart stopping and graphic climatic scene that totally broke my heart in pieces and angered me too! 


Even though I thought the climatic scene was huge that did not prepare me for the shock of all shocks at the end. Beverley threw a curve ball for her readers.
