'Sleep Tight' is what you WON'T be able to do if you start reading Rachel Abbott's excellent new thriller. From the frightening menace of the opening to the last touching scene you will be taken on a scintillating journey with more twists and turns than a pit of snakes.

Tom Douglas, the lovable detective from Rachel's two previous books, is on hand to guide you through the intricate maze of the plot (and has a blossoming love interest of his own developing too), but perhaps by the end it will onl

What can I say about this book? I read the previous two by Abbott and really enjoyed them, giving them both 5 stars. If I could give this book more stars I would.

I also enjoyed the reference to the Channel Isles. The ending was cleverly written

I read this in just over a

Sleep Tight was my first encounter with Rachel Abbott's work...and boy did it pull me in! I nonchalantly downloaded a sample on my Kindle in bed one evening, and I found myself staying up until 4 AM to finish it! Spellbinding! ...more

Her best yet. Not as disturbing as Only the Innocent, but somehow more set in the real world. The twists and turns continued right to the end, leaving my head spinning! Though now I need to know what happened to Tom's brother ... ...more
