Tot de dood ons scheidt

Rock Paper Scissors by Alice Feeney is undoubtedly one of the most impressive thrillers I’ve ever read. The story starts with a seemingly simple premise: a couple, Adam and Amelia, head to a remote chapel in Scotland for a weekend getaway in a last-ditch attempt to save their marriage. But from the very first page, Feeney creates an eerie atmosphere that makes it clear that not everything is as it seems.
What makes this book so brilliant is how Feeney plays with perspective and secrets. The story is told alternately from Adam, Amelia, and a series of mysterious letters, and every new piece of information changes how you see the characters and the events unfolding. You're constantly second-guessing everything, and the twists keep coming at a rapid pace. It’s impossible not to get sucked into this game of lies, familiar faces, and hidden motives.

And then the ending… It’s absolutely phenomenal. As everything comes together, the tension builds to a breaking point, and you’re hit with a twist that you didn’t see coming but fits perfectly within the story. It’s the kind of plot twist that lingers in your mind long after you’ve turned the last page.

What also sets Rock Paper Scissors apart is the emotional depth beneath the mystery and suspense. At its core, it’s a story about love, loss, and the truths we hide from ourselves. It’s a thriller that not only gets your heart racing but also makes you reflect on the complex dynamics of human relationships.

In short, Rock Paper Scissors is a must-read for anyone who loves a smart, psychological thriller with an unpredictable plot and characters that will stay with you long after the book is finished. Feeney has truly outdone herself with this masterpiece.
