What is real, what is not when a mind cannot really differentiate that? Sane or crazy? It is a deeply touching story, scary at times but wanting to know what will happen next, I kept reading. It proves an author’s ability to describe with a detail psychological process of a human nature. An excellent novel that would translate well into a movie. There were definitely jaw dropping moments. Gabriel Blake imagined a very well thought out plotline with twists and turns that kept the action alive and me on tenterhooks. The lead character took up residence in my head. As the body count rises, the reader is even more mystified as to who the perpetrator is. If he chooses the later I might have to read with one eye closed. This book demonstrates he can create believable characters, do suspense and mystery and also full-on action and horror. I thoroughly enjoyed the read and I'm going to follow where this author goes next. The climax of the story, out of the blue, was explosive veering more towards horror than thriller. What a great book, I couldn't put it down, all the twists and turns were amazing. Have just finished reading The Mother of all Things. Kept me on the edge of my seat the whole way through. Can not believe it's the Authors first book.
This is a tricky thing to do, yet the author does a great job with it.

It was supposed to be a new beginning for Elaine Davis. If your mind wiped away a traumatic event from your past, would you want to remember? Sometimes the choice is made for you! Blake melds mystery, crime, suspense, drama, and action in a story seeping with dark paranoid tension.' - Author E.
