Description
A brilliantly twisty psychological thriller from the bestselling author of Keep Your Eyes on Me and The Dark Room.
...
If she'd turned off her phone, instead of listening in, perhaps no one would have died...
When Cressida Howard catches her entrepreneur husband playing away from home, she hires security expert Brioni O'Brien to get the evidence she needs for a speedy and financially rewarding divorce.
But what Brioni uncovers goes beyond simple infidelity. Because Laurence Howard is also in bed with some very dangerous people. Bribery and blackmail are the least of his worries as someone comes after the women in his life - someone who is out to destroy Laurence and his empire, whatever the cost.
And Cressida and her teenage daughter could soon be collateral damage, if she and Brioni don't act fast.

Thanks to NetGalley and Atlantic Books for giving me an advance copy.
So many themes emerge from this book that seemingly starts with just a potentially bitter divorce settlement. A tense thriller where you can never be sure when the next hit will be, by whom or against whom. Edge of your seat story with compelling and vividly-depicted characters who keep surprising you as their role in the plot develops.
This is another gem of a read from Sam Blake and it was great to catch up with the character of Brioni again. Like all the her previous books, this one had me intrigued right from the start and my mind was asking so many questions which of course I didn't answer until I got to the end. I love that I couldn't predict the outcome of this story line and there were plenty of brilliant twists that really threw me. The characters were all really well developed and the storyline was current and on trend. It's fast-paced and full of action which makes for a real page-turner. I can't wait to read the next book and hope to see more of Brioni in future books as well. Excellent 5 star read and sure to be a huge hit with readers.
Remember my Name is a brilliant and clever psychological thriller which grabs you in right from the first chapter with it's "if only" statement at the very beginning.

Many thanks to netgalley and Sam Blake for the advanced copy of this book. I agreed to give my unbiased opinion voluntarily.
This book is a must read to all those who enjoy a good character driven mystery, especially one where one act drives the next one at a breakneck pace. The marital betrayal serves as merely a backdrop for the business machinations and illegal dealings that shortly follow and threaten to swallow the protagonist and all that she holds dear.
What starts out as a bitter divorce escalates into a world of darkness as Cressida's attempts to uncover an affair to use against her soon to be ex uncovers more than she could ever have imagines and plummets her and her daughter into danger.
Compulsive reading, impossible to guess the whole who, why and when keeps the pages turning apace!
A gripping tense and nail biting read , this is not to be missed. Sam Blake is an extremely talented writer and this is a fantastic read Cressida finds out that her husband has been cheating on her, However he is also invovled with dangerous people and this is where the story really gets going! Not to be missed!
Cressida and Laurence , on the surface seem to have it all , but Cressida is convinced Laurence is having an affair. She calls on Brioni to find out what she can by hacking in to Laurence's emails and financial affairs . Doing this Brioni finds out some disturbing information about business deals that Laurence is doing behind his partners' backs. She also finds out that he has employed Nina a computer expert to find out anything about his partners' vices and secrets , this she has done to help a company Laurence wants to join with despite his teenage daughter's dislike of the company . This all comes to a head when Dirk Ackroyd CEO of the company Speakeasy comes to visit Laurence at his home. Murder and mayhem throughout with many unexpected twists along the way.
