The April book that was picked for my Book Club to read was The Girl With A Clock For A Heart by Peter Swanson
This is the story of George and his college sweetheart Liana who re-appears in his life some 20 years after faking her own disappearance.
Liana needs George's help and as he's still under her spell, he gets involved in a money and diamond scandal.
The storyline is exciting and entertaining with lots of action and happenings there was never a dull moment.
However, I found the plot was too predicable, almost as though this book was made to be a movie film script and not a book to read.
The characters were all well defined and I liked the roles they played. But the over use of descriptions for every single person was unnecessary and became a little annoying.
I recommend this book to romantic thriller readers.
