I absolutely adored it.

Alice is a watcher. Somewhat similar vibes to Woman in the Window and The Girl on the Train but don’t worry it’s original.
Alice watches her wonderful, bright young thing neighbours Kevin and Kim and seems to be a little bit jealous of their fantastic life.
While Alice is away in London she sees Kim. But on her return Kevin tells her it was impossible, Kim is with her friend’s in Ireland.
Alice doesn’t falter and begins to investigate and finds herself in deep water.

An excellent novel, great pacing and fun to read

Parnell Park is a quiet, suburban street where not much happens.

Alice from number 25 observes the street's inhabitants - lives such as Kevin and Kim, the beautiful couple from across the road, as charmed as they are charming. Her own quiet life is hampered by private circumstance, but she craves more.

Then on a visit to London, Alice sees Kim on a passing train. But when she mentions it to Kevin on her return home, he insists that his wife is in the West of Ireland on holiday with friends. But she knows what she saw.

When Alice starts to investigate, her concern for Kim's life intensifies, and she finds herself in a high-stakes game with shadowy rules, hidden dangers - and unexpected temptations. Set over the course of a sultry summer, I Know I Saw Her is a masterfully told suspense novel about desire, appearances and deception, as compelling as it is creepy, full of unexpected turns.
A gripping story

Credible Cast, Convincing Narrative….
Parnell Park, a quiet suburban street. Not much happens here, does it? But, Alice from number 25 thinks differently. Alice is an observer. She observes everyone and anything on the street, she notices things - especially the seemingly perfect couple across the way, Kim and Kevin. When see sees Kim off street confines, and mentions it to Kevin, she’s met with a brick wall. But, she knows what she saw. Doesn’t she? Edge of seat tense, intriguing and decidedly creepy psychological suspense with a wholly credible cast and a convincing narrative.

The book had its good moments. It started off with Alice convinced that she had Sen Kim but the husband insisted she couldn't have.

Then Alice went investigating about what could have happened to her. The premise was great, but the delivery fell a bit apart. Nevertheless I could skim and finish it. Overall it was good but could have been far better.

I really tried with this book, I went back to it several times but unfortunately it just wasn't for me. I broke my rule of always finishing a book I start and gave up less than of way through. Sorry!

I really liked the idea of the plot and was looking forward to reading it, but unfortunately, it let me down. It was very uninteresting and did not capture my attention at all. I was very disappointed.

I received an advanced reader’s copy in exchange for an honest review

The plot sounded so interesting but the mystery was flat and took so long to develop I had long since stopped caring. Not even an entertaining guilty pleasure
