It has deeply layered, complex, honest, absolutely well-developed characterization. Night Shift has everything for geeky mystery/ serial killer story fans like me. Can I write it? Well, if the author exceeded my expectations with his great performance, I think it’s worth to try! I wrote a five star review for Every Last Fear so to be fair I have to write seven stars review for Night Shift. Could he write something even better than his debut? And he actually did. I enjoyed Every Last Fear as a debut and I was so curious what he would write after that great book. I want to print and sell embroidered T-shirts with his book covers! I have to discuss his books on book forums and chant for his works! Oh my! May I have your attention please? I think after devouring one of the best thing I’ve read lately, I can honestly say: I want to create a fan club of Alex Finlay. Happy pub day to this unputdownable addiction! 🥳🎉🥂🎈 Twisty, poignant, and redemptive, The Night Shift is a story about the legacy of trauma and how the broken can come out on the other side, and it solidifies Alex Finlay as one of the new leading voices in the world of thrillers.

Police quickly identify a suspect who flees and is never seen again.įifteen years later, in the same town, four teenage employees working late at an ice cream store are attacked, and again only one makes it out alive.īoth surviving victims recall the killer speaking only a few final words. But at a Blockbuster Video in Linden, New Jersey, four teenage girls working the night shift are attacked. Y2K is expected to end in chaos: planes falling from the sky, elevators plunging to earth, world markets collapsing.
