Anonymous Girl (Hendricks-Pekkanen) - Book Reviews

Book Reviews
Psychological suspense is a genre that needs to be handled with kid gloves. Too much reality—or too much foolishness—and the pact made with the reader to believe in the unbelievable is broken. Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen seem to have mastered the formula in An Anonymous Girl, a creepy-crawly tale about putting your trust in a stranger; specifically, in a strange psychologist.… The authors know exactly how to play on their characters' love of danger to bring them to the brink of disaster—and dare them to jump off.
Marilyn Stasio - New York Times Book Review


(Starred review)  The page-turner’s second half whizzes along at a furious pace, exploiting the dual perspectives for maximum tension. Though some of the gasp-worthy final twists require substantial character flip-flops, it’s a… minor sacrifice for major league suspense.
Publishers Weekly


(Starred review) For those who relished the creepy stalking in Hendricks and Pekkanen's The Wife Between Us, this unnerving tale will have them rethinking what secrets are safe to share and if moral and ethics really matter when protecting the ones you love.
Library Journal


(Starred review) Masterfully escalates the suspense… keep[s] the reader guessing until the end. A great follow-up
Booklist


Almost nothing about this story or its characters is believable or makes much sense…. Leave that aside, though, and you can still have a bit of fun watching their game of cat and mouse play out. A harmless page-turner.
