When I read the message from my best friend Leona, I sense the danger screaming from every word.
Can’t speak. Don’t text or call. Please just come.
I race to her house, thinking about the circle of bruises I saw on her wrist days earlier. But when she opens the door, Leona is smiling, her husband’s arm tightly around her narrow shoulders, her little girl’s laughter echoing from the living room.
She says she never sent me a message and she’s fine. And when I look at my phone, the message is deleted.
But six hours later, the police are at my door. Leona and her family have disappeared, their dinner burned, blood all over the kitchen.
My best friend and her beautiful family are missing. I was the last one to see them alive…
A completely gripping and addictive thriller from the number 1 ebook bestselling author K.L. Slater, Message Deleted will have you glued to the pages until the very last twist. Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell and Freida McFadden.
For many years, Kim sent her work out to literary agents but never made it off the slush pile. At the age of 40 she went back to Nottingham Trent University and now has an MA in Creative Writing.
Before graduating, she received five offers of representation from London literary agents which was, as Kim says, ‘a fairytale … at the end of a very long road!’
Kim is a full-time writer and lives in Nottingham with her husband, Mac.

Message Deleted
Written By K.L. Slater
Review By Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews
First, I want to thank K. L. Slater, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review.
K.L. Slater is back with another twisted psychological thriller in Message Deleted to add to your TBR list. This was a story that was written creatively out of the box.
For me Message Deleted didn’t draw me in right away which I was disappointed by. Usually, I love a book that grasps my attention right away and hooks me so I can’t stop reading the book. For me it took a few chapters to start getting faster paced. However, when it did boy did it,
Of all the characters in this book Ash was my least favorite one. He just rubbed me the wrong way because of the way he treated Leona.
My heart was with Saffy when she just went through something horrific moments prior to a big job interview. I think I would have reacted the same way that she did.
Message Deleted has a lot of wicked twists, turns, action scenes and some violence thrown in.
