Review by Mel on 2023-12-24

A fast-paced and gripping thriller, The Night Shift by Alex Finlay is packed with suspense, multiple POVs, and shocking twists. On New Year’s Eve in 1999, three employees at a Blockbuster store are brutally murdered, with only one survivor, Ella. The suspect vanishes without a trace. Fifteen years later, an eerily similar crime occurs at an ice cream shop, with another lone survivor. FBI agent Keller, defense attorney Chris, and Ella—now a therapist—are drawn into the investigation as they uncover chilling connections between the two cases. With short chapters, relentless pacing, and a compelling mystery, this book is a page-turner. If you love thrillers with strong female leads and clever twists, The Night Shift is worth picking up.
