Review:
If you are looking for a thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat, Gregg Hurwitz' new novel, YOU'RE NEXT is be the page-turner for you. Starting out as a four year old boy abandoned at a playground as his father drives away, Mike Wingate grows up to be reputable citizen who values his family above all else. He works long hard hours and when he reaches his mid-thirties, he has met success.
After developing and a building a green community, he discovers that the project used PVC pipe instead of vitrified clay. This misstep begins the relentless plot. Mike has a loyal, wonderful wife, Annabel, and precocious daughter, Katherine.
Mike Wingate is thrust into the worst circumstance and his perfect family is at risk, of course. Apparently, outside of his family, he can rely on one other person. Shep, a gangster, is connected to Mike through a foster home. Hurwitz creates solid characters, they are not vague, we know how they look and think.
This is yet another great thriller book by a successful author.
