About the book

One night can change everything. ‘I know it as soon as I wake up and open my eyes... Something is wrong.’ Her Saturday night started normally. Recently separated from her husband, Ali has been persuaded by her friends to go on a date with a new man. She is ready, she is nervous, she is excited. She is about to take a step into her new future. By Sunday morning, Ali’s life is unrecognisable. She wakes, and she knows that something is wrong. She is home, she is alone, she is hurt and she has no memory of what happened to her. Worse still, when she looks in the mirror, Ali doesn’t recognise the face staring back at her… From the no. 1 bestselling author of The Sister, The Gift and The Surrogate, The Date is a gripping page-turner that will keep you awake until the early hours. Perfect for fans of The Girl on the Train and Before I Go To Sleep. What readers are saying about The Date: ‘Holy cow, what a read! I literally dropped everything I was supposed to be doing after reading the first few pages and couldn't put it down until I reached the very end… one of the best psychological thrillers I've read this year and without doubt a new all-time favourite!’ It’s All About Books, 5 stars ‘I literally didn’t put it down once from start to finish!… It sent chills down my spine… The last page of this book gave me goosebumps and I felt glad I wasn’t home alone!... gripping, unnerving and an unputdownable read!’ Rather Too Fond of Books, 5 stars ‘Wow, I would give this a 10 out of 5 stars if I could!... An absolutely fantastic, heart-pumping, twisted, thrill-seeking read that I could not put down… a heart-breaking emotional rollercoaster… The Date completely knocked my socks off.’ Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars ‘OMG WOW… you won’t be able to turn those pages fast enough… the final twist will absolutely knock you out… this rare and exceptional book will be put forward for Literature Love’s top 10 books of the year.’ Literature Love, 5 stars ‘Ohhhhhhhh my goodness!!! Louise Jensen has blown my mind AGAIN!... will literally have your jaw dropping… I was nervous to even turn the page (that’s my favourite part of a well written thriller)!!!’ Steph and Chris’s Book Review, 5 stars ‘Every now and then a book comes along that completely blows my mind!! And this is one of them!! To say I loved it is an understatement!! This book was absolutely freaking BRILLIANT!!’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘Mind blowing, edge-of-your seat fantastic!... Kept me guessing straight from the off just when I thought I had it figured out, another twist.’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars ‘What a page-turner of a book this is…

    Das Buch war leicht zu lesen und doch auch sehr spannend. Es war mein erstes Buch von der Autorin und ich bin begeistert. Das Ende war allerdings in meinen Augen so nicht zu erwarten.

    Spannung

    War seit langem mal wieder ein Thriller und ich fand ihn mega spannend. Hat sich flüssig gelesen gute Kapitelaufteilung auch der Switch der Blickwinkel und Rückblenden waren top. Ich liebe Bücher, wo man selber überlegt was dahintersteckt und am Ende kommt eine völlig andere Wendung. Top gelungen 😁

Die ersten 100 Seiten fand ich etwas langgezogen. Seitdem geht es und es wird spannender. Jules geht mir tatsächlich mächtig auf die Nerven wenn sie jeden Versuch, den Ali unternimmt, schlechtredet. Erst beim Hypnosetherapeuten und jetzt auf dem Weg zur Bar. Es ist gerade mal eine Woche her und Ali soll "es einfach abhaken"?
