I got this book as a review copy. Blackbird is a beautiful book about loss of a loved one.
The story revolves around Alex, her sister is gone missing and she will do anything to find about her whereabouts. But is Alex really ready to find the truth ?
When Alex tries to find her sister Olivia, she will come to know so many things that may be she did not wanted to learn.
This book is a physiological thriller , you expect one thing to happen but totally a different thing happens.
If you have read and liked ATBP, 13 Reasons Why then you will definitely love this book.
I really loved the character of Alex and how she helps DI, the way she changes her and motivates her.
I just wish I could write a more detailed review but If I write more I guess I am going to reveal a lot more about this beautifully written book before its publication date.
So I would just say that if you love to read crime, mystery, thriller than do give this book a read and you will eventually fall in love with all the characters.
And how could I forget to mention that cover of this book is just so beautiful. The cover truly got me attracted to it. The black and gold just makes it look mesmerizing.
SYNOPSIS:
Dark contemporary YA following a murder mystery on Orkney that fans of 13 Reasons Why will devour.
Olivia disappeared the night the blackbird died.
It was New Years Eve the night that dead blackbirds descended, hours before fourteen year old Alex McCarthy's sister Olivia went missing from a party.
Committed to finding out what happened to her sister, within the previously safe walls of their subarctic Orkney village, Alex knows that dishevelled, sometimes intoxicated Detective Inspector Birkens is her best shot.
Yet as they uncover the secrets behind Olivia's last night, Alex starts to find things she may be better off never knowing...
