One of The New York Times Book Review’s 10 Best Crime Novels of 2016!
The next blockbuster thriller for those who loved The Girl on the Train and Gone Girl...“a finely crafted novel with a killer twist.”(#1 New York Times bestselling author Paula Hawkins)
On a rainy afternoon, a mother's life is shattered as her son slips from her grip and runs into the street...
I Let You Go follows Jenna Gray as she moves to a ramshackle cottage on the remote Welsh coast, trying to escape the memory of the car accident that plays again and again in her mind and desperate to heal from the loss of her child and the rest of her painful past.
At the same time, the novel tracks the pair of Bristol police investigators trying to get to the bottom of this hit-and-run. As they chase down one hopeless lead after another, they find themselves as drawn to each other as they are to the frustrating, twist-filled case before them. Elizabeth Haynes, author of Into the Darkest Corner, says, “I read I Let You Go in two sittings; it made me cry (at least twice), made me gasp out loud (once), and above all made me wish I'd written it...a stellar achievement.”

Jenna Gray's life changes forever on one fateful night, and she can't stop running.. Twists upon twists fill this book. I almost gasped out loud during three of them, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. After a 5-year-old boy dies, Jenna is haunted by mightmares. She turns herself in to fulfill a sense of justice. While an unreliable narrator at times, I think this speaks to her ultimate character. The real killer is found out, don't worry. Ian deserved his fate, that's all I have left to say. "I never thought I would run away. I never thought I would need to."
3.5* Nach den ersten etwa 100 Seiten hätte ich das Buch fast abgebrochen. Doch nach dem ersten Twist konnte ich es kaum mehr aus der Hand legen. Mir haben die verschiedenen Sichtweisen gut gefallen, obwohl mir der Detective zwischendurch ziemlich auf die Nerven ging. Insgesamt fand ich das Buch spannend und ziemlich düster. Es hatte mehrere überraschende Wendungen und mit Jenna eine interessante Protagonistin. Das Ende war für mich etwas zu übertrieben und gleichzeitig vorhersehbar.
