I Know What I Saw 

By NJ Cracknell

She lost her sister. Now someone is making sure she loses her mind.

Four years after witnessing her sister Beth disappear without a trace, Maya Brennan is still drowning in the aftermath. The guilt and isolation of a small Irish coastal town forces her to believe she could have imagined it all. But when a mysterious laptop appears in her home, everything changes.

Because the first email she reads was sent from Beth's long-dead account.

As more messages arrive, Maya becomes certain that someone is watching her. Someone who knows all about her weaknesses and her past. Soon, neighbours think she's relapsing into alcoholism, colleagues keep their distance and even the people she trusts the most begin to look like suspects.

Someone wants to terrify her. Someone wants the truth to stay buried. But now Maya can't ignore what she saw that fateful day.

In a town full of secrets, Maya must face the haunting truth: What if Beth really is out there? And what if the biggest threat of all is the one she's already let in?

I Know What I Saw is a twist-filled psychological thriller about obsession and guilt, and is perfect for fans of Andrea Mara and Alice Feeney.

Review by Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews

First, I want to thank NJ Cracknell and Bloodhound Books for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review. 

WOWZERS!!! NJ Cracknell took us on a wild rollercoaster ride of emotions trying to find out what actually happened to Maya’s sister Beth in I Know What I Saw. This storyline was written creatively outside of the box from the other psychological thrillers out there. It is gripping, fast paced, addicting, binge readable, suspenseful, mysterious, has shock value, and heart ache as well. I would suggest it for your tbr pile. 

After reading I Know What You Saw about Maya and Beth I had to call my sister and tell her how much she meant to me! Stories like this pull on my heart strings! Throughout the book when Maya kept getting messages from Beth I was praying they were actually from her. In fact, I could not put this book down until I knew what was actually going on with Beth!! There were so many twists, turns, deep secrets and jaw dropping revelations. 

Like Maya I too get anxiety attacks and I appreciated learning about the mindfulness of making tea and how it can help relax your breathing. I do like tea so I will have to try this technique next time I make some. Thanks NJ. 

I chuckled that Beth kept a checklist of qualities of men when she started dating someone. They had to have their own place, their own car, no psycho exes, and no kids. Hair. Be close with their mum. 

The climax of I Know What I Saw was intense and building up to the shocking revelations that I didn’t see coming! It was good!!
