Stalker - Lisa Stone

Blurb

Someone is always watching…

Derek Flint is a loner. He lives with his mother and spends his

evenings watching his clients on the CCTV cameras he has installed inside their homes. He likes their companionship – even if it’s through a screen.

When a series of crimes hits Derek’s neighbourhood, DC Beth Mayes begins to suspect he’s involved. How does he know so much about the victims’ lives? Why won’t he let anyone into his office? And what is his mother hiding in that strange, lonely house?

As the crimes become more violent, Beth must race against the clock to find out who is behind the attacks. Will she uncover the truth in time? And is Derek more dangerous than even she has guessed?

Review

This novel has a brilliant concept... the idea of someone watching you through your CCTV is totally creepy! It is a simple, well-paced read and with a sinister plot, perfect if you are not in the mood for anything too complex. Which sometimes that is exactly what I fancy! However, this time I wanted more, maybe too much? Because Stalker fell short of my expectations I found it rather predictable and felt the characters were somewhat stereotypical. 

Thanks to Netgalley and Avon Books UK for sending me this in exchange for an open and honest review.
