Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express

Anonim a dat nota:

It was gripping, intense, suspenseful and it has cost me 2 nights of good sleep. I would've given it 5 stars if not for the really bad ending. It didn't feel as real as the rest of the book and it kinda ruined the whole story for me. It almost felt like the story was going in a different direction but the author insisted to take this path instead, turning it into a bad action movie in which literally everyone knows how to use a gun.

A masterpiece of tension.The Chainscared the hell out of me but I could not put it down! I raced to the end of the book and then went back to see how Adrian McKinty pulled it all off.The Chainbelongs in the elite company of world-class thrillers likeGone GirlandThe Silence of the Lambs. This is nothing short of JAWS for parents."—Don Winslow,New York Timesbestselling author ofThe CartelandThe Force
