New Review – “The Night Watcher” by Daphne Woolsoncroft

Nola Strate, a late night call-in radio host in Portland, Oregon, listens to stories of hauntings and cryptic sightings for a living. But one foggy, wet evening, when a caller describes an eerie scene that triggers memories of Nola’s escape from a serial killer years before, she becomes fearfully aware that he’s back to finish what he started.

Thank you, NetGalley and publisher Grand Central Publishing, for the eARC for review purposes. All opinions expressed here are mine alone. “Night Watcher” by Daphne Woolsoncroft is available now.

I think I’m the outlier here because this book received rave reviews, and I was expecting something that would blow my mind. Unfortunately, this is not it. I did enjoy it; it wasn’t horrible, but I was expecting more creepiness and unease. The beginning of the novel started just that way and was incredibly creepy and unsettling. However, after the beginning, the plot slows down and, for me, becomes uninteresting.

I think, overall, I can understand the appeal to readers. Someone who enjoys reading about amateur sleuths would enjoy this book. Happy reading!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3/5
