Review: NOTHING BUT DARKNESS, by Maria Ann Green

Nothing but Darkness is a twisty thrill ride that does not disappoint. The main character, Aidan Sheppard, finds himself taking bigger and bigger risks as he gets away with one horrific crime after another—until he goes so far that he's bound to be discovered. I was biting my nails through this one, and couldn't wait to find out whether and how Aidan would get caught. Maria Ann Green does a fabulous job making the reader root for a main character whose morality is questionable—and who redeems himself by upholding ethics in unexpected situations.

Rumor has it that a sequel is in the works, which I'm beyond excited for. This is a spoiler-free zone, so I have to be careful what I post; suffice it to say that all the characters in Nothing but Darkness are incredibly vivid, and seeing any of them in a sequel would be a delight!

Stars: 5/5
Recommended for: This is a great thriller for fans of Dexter, Gillian Flynn, and LT Vargus/Tim McBain. If you love anti-heroes and gore, you'll definitely want to pick this one up.
Bonus points: The cover is mysteriously breathtaking!

You can find this story as an ebook (including through Kindle Unlimited!) and paperback.
