The Other Boy is the debut novel from author Heidi Field.
When the worst comes calling…
Scott and Blair Bagby are a happy, successful English couple living in the suburbs with their teenage son and Great Dane. Life seems good, until one beautiful spring morning when a detective inspector knocks on their door asking if their son is home, unleashing an unspeakable horror that blows apart the life they thought they had.
Police have discovered bodies buried deep in the Peasedale forest and the inspector suspects one is Jamie, the final victim of a brutal and prolific serial killer. But Jamie’s death is unlike all the others, starting with his emergency phone call that leads to a macabre burial ground near a dilapidated hunting shack and creates shocking suspicions.
With bone deep grief threatening to destroy their marriage and their sanity, Scott and Blair set out to investigate Jamie’s death, a journey that not only upends their perceptions of who they are, but torturously reveals they may not have known Jamie at all…
The Other Boy is a fascinating thriller that keeps you guessing and turning the pages. It’s the type of book you pick up when you have nothing else on as you won’t be able to put it down once you start reading it, and it’s one you will not be able to stop thinking about.
It’s a slow-burning book where the details are tantalisingly revealed. It’s well-plotted and has characters you can’t help but become invested in.
If you like physcological thrillers then this a book you really need to read!
