Title: What Have We Done

Author: Alex Finlay

Publisher: Minotaur Books
Publication Date: March 7, 2023
Amazon.co.uk: Alex Finlay: Books, Biography, Blogs, Audiobooks, Kindle
Rating: 4 out of 5

Alex Finlay's latest thriller focuses on the impact of an event, kept secret but not forgotten, on the lives of 5 teenagers. 25 years ago, these 5 parentless teens living in Savior House, a place as depressing and dismal as it should be inspiring, commit an unthinkable act that will define their future lives. 

The book bounces back and forth between the past and the present, slowly revealing what the act was and why it happened. Meanwhile, in the present the past catches up to them as their lives are in danger from an unknown enemy.

I found the story compelling, although I was a little disappointed that it took two-thirds of the story before the three main protagonists were reunited. At that point, they could collectively ask, "What have we done". There are plenty if twists to keep you reading to the very last page. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Thank you to NetGalley for sending me an advance review copy for free;  I am leaving this honest review voluntarily.
