Review - Geneva by Richard Armitage

Writer's picture: HalesHales

A SPECTACULAR DESTINATION THRILLER WITH HEART


Nobel Prize-winning scientist Sarah Collier has started to show the same tell-tale signs of Alzheimer’s disease as her father: memory loss, even blackouts. So she is reluctant to accept the invitation to be the guest of honour at a prestigious biotech conference – until her husband Daniel, a neuroscientist, persuades her that the publicity storm will be worth it. The technology being unveiled at this conference could revolutionise medicine forever. More than that, it could save Sarah’s life.


In Geneva, the couple are feted as stars – at least, Sarah is. But behind the five-star luxury, investors are circling, controversial blogger Terri Landau is all over the story, and Sarah’s symptoms are getting worse. As events begin to spiral out of control, Sarah can’t be sure who to trust – including herself . .




This was incredible!!! What an amazing storyline. It's hard not to like Sarah pretty much instantly from the start. Reading about what she has achieved and what she is going through just makes you like her.


When the purpose for the 'trip' is revealed it makes sense - you can see why her husband Daniel wants to convince her to go. However, when they get there - that's when the twists and turns start! I loved the fact that the twists and turns were not predictable and some I was literally gasping out loud!


I couldn't put it down, I just had to keep reading to see how this was going to end. It's no wonder the tagline is trust no-one, not even yourself as there were ties where I was just gobsmacked at what was happening.


I feel like the pacing of the book was perfect, I'm reading and then as were getting more into it the pace picks up and I'm reading and reading and at times my heart is literally in my mouth waiting to see what happens next.
