A strange room. Strange people. Being watched.
As Maria gets closer to the truth she is drawn into a web of international intrigue and must fight not only to clear her name but to remain alive.

I really enjoyed this preview extract, I read it as soon as it came through as the blurb provided sounded really interesting and I was intrigued by the title and the cover - and the preview left me on a cliff hanger, I want, no need to know more! If the book carries on in the same vein that it has started it will be a definate 5 star read. I can't wait for the rest of the book to become available to see where the author is taking the story.

Wow! So happy to have been given the opportunity to read this preview of the first 5 chapters of The Spider in the Corner of the room. This is going to be huge! I can't wait to read the full title- I screamed NO!!!! when the extract finished. Amazing and brilliant idea to whet our appetites for the full title. Think the book world needs a new heroine like Maria and I can't wait to find out more.

This was a great taster of what is to come in The Spider In The Corner Of The Room. I don't normally request or read excerpts but I've been intrigued about Nikki Owen's new novel since I first heard about it. The story of Doctor Maria Martinez, a Spanish surgeon, working in London and found guilty of murder. The victim was a priest and there is definitely a great backstory as to why Maria would take a life. There are subtle hints as to the reasons and we're introduced to some great characters, including Kurt - Maria's therapist, and Dr Balthazar Ochoa, the prison governor.
I'm hooked after reading the first five chapters and I love that the main character has Asperger's, this is rarely seen in fiction - especially adult fiction, and I look forward to seeing how this comes across in the story as a whole.
Will definitely be requesting the full book when it's available.
