Rock Paper Scissors – Alice Feeney
Things have been going wrong for the Wright couple for a long time. Adam and Amelia Wright are an odd couple with too many secrets. When they win a weekend getaway to an isolated place in the Scottish Highlands, things take an eerie turn in their relationship. They know this trip will either break or make their marriage. Adam suffers from a condition known as “face blindness.” He can’t recognize faces. He can’t even recognize his own wife. Every anniversary, they exchange traditional gifts, and every anniversary, Amelia writes a letter to Adam that she never lets him read. Until now.
They didn’t win this weekend getaway trip randomly. One of them is lying, and ten years’ worth of secrets are about to come undone. The author did a great job with the setting of this story. The remote, snowed-in atmosphere made the plot more creepy and suspenseful. This is an intense and gripping tale. The plot twists are unpredictable, and the writing is easy to get through and engaging. A fun read for new mystery-thriller readers.
