Dead Money: A Novel by Jakob Kerr
5.0
I loved this book. It was everything that I look for in a thriller, and I had so much fun with it. I love tech thrillers, and this one delivered for me. The writing was so well done in this book. I was hooked right from the beginning and stayed engaged the entire time. The pacing is incredibly quick, and you won’t feel like you’ve read over 400 pages by the time you’re done, or at least I didn’t because it felt like it was over in the blink of an eye. To me this book wasn’t about not being able to guess who committed the crime, it was more about the journey and the twists along the way, and it was great. There was a lot going on and a lot of moving pieces. As the author meticulously crafted their tale, things started to click and fall into place, and then the twists started happening. The final scenes were great, and I didn’t see everything coming, so while I think you will figure some of this book out, there is plenty to leave you guessing and waiting to figure out.
I didn’t realize until after I was done that this is a debut novel for this author, they are going places.
I highly recommend this one to those who love thrillers about tech, or who just love fast paced thrillers.
Thank you to the author, @jakob_kerr, the publisher Bantam books @penguinrandomhouse and @netgalley. All thoughts are my own
