"A gripping thriller with a teaser of more to come."
A twisting psychological thriller with elements of horror and the supernatural. Andrew Goodwin experiences a near fatal car accident and after he recovers he experiences strange disturbances, scratching on the walls and moments of missing memory. As these episodes become more intense he starts to hear voices and loses even more time.
Trapped and scared, Andrew starts to uncover more about his blackouts, but will he be able to find an answer and reclaim his mind and his life. ‘Affinities’ by Hollis Thompson is a twisting psychological thriller that I’d encourage you to read, not read about in order to avoid spoilers.
Putting me in mind of Jekyll and Hyde and even faintly reminding me of watching Donnie Darko, this thriller is flavoured with elements of horror and the supernatural to keep you at the edge of your seat. There is a lot of detailed imagery, the description of Andrew’s nightmare and the cold fried breakfast was impactful and turned my stomach.
I also liked the use of different perspectives, the plot adds a layer of complexity to the book’s structure but ‘Affinities’ is well-paced and builds plenty of tension to keep you reading. A gripping thriller with a teaser of more to come.

A brilliantly different story of nightmares turned to some sort of alternate realities triggered by a car accident. A kind of schizophrenia reminiscent of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde - good and bad, day and night. An intense psychological drama with a cliff-hanger ending.
