The Inmate A gripping psychological thriller Paperback – 1 January 2022

Here's a detailed review of "The Inmate" by Freida McFadden:Gripping Premise with Chilling Twists:"The Inmate" throws you into the dark and suspenseful world of a maximum-security prison, where new nurse practitioner Brooke Sullivan soon realizes her carefully constructed life is on the verge of unraveling. The main premise is gripping: Brooke's assigned to care for Shane Nelson, a notorious inmate with whom she shares a hidden past. This sets the stage for a story riddled with tension, secrecy, and the constant threat of danger.Compelling Characters with Hidden Depths:McFadden excels at crafting complex characters with hidden depths. Brooke is initially presented as a dedicated professional, but as the story progresses, cracks begin to show in her facade. Her internal struggles and conflicting emotions as she confronts her past are palpable. Shane, the enigmatic inmate, is equally well-developed. His motivations are shrouded in mystery, keeping the reader guessing until the very end. The supporting cast, from the prison guards to Brooke's colleagues, also add depth and intrigue to the narrative.Fast-Paced Plot with Twists and Turns:The plot of "The Inmate" is a rollercoaster ride of suspense and tension. McFadden masterfully builds up the atmosphere, layering on secrets and betrayals that keep the reader constantly on edge. The pacing is perfect, with just the right balance of character development and action to keep you turning pages. Just when you think you have everything figured out, a new twist throws you off track, leaving you desperate to uncover the truth.Themes of Guilt, Redemption, and Second Chances:Beneath the surface of the thrilling plot, "The Inmate" explores deeper themes of guilt, redemption, and the possibility of second chances. Brooke's journey is a stark reminder that past mistakes can have lasting consequences, but also that forgiveness and healing are possible. Shane's story raises questions about the nature of good and evil, and whether even the most hardened criminals deserve a chance at redemption.Overall, "The Inmate" is a gripping and suspenseful psychological thriller that will keep you guessing until the very last page. McFadden's masterful storytelling, complex characters, and cleverly woven plot twists make this a must-read for fans of the genre.Here are some additional points to consider:* The novel's setting, the maximum-security prison, adds a layer of realism and claustrophobia to the story.* The book's exploration of ethical dilemmas faced by healthcare professionals in such a setting is thought-provoking.* Some readers might find the ending somewhat predictable, but the journey to get there is well worth the ride.I would recommend "The Inmate" to anyone who enjoys fast-paced thrillers with complex characters and unexpected twists. It's a dark and suspenseful read that will stay with you long after you finish the last page.I hope this review is helpful! Let me know if you have any other questions.

At first it began weird, knowing her attacker’s sentenced in Rakers penitentiary, she chose to work there as a Nurse, with plenty chances of seeing her attacker around. But as the story developed, I was surprised with the different twists/variations that changed this book’s weirdness to curiosity. It’s a totally different story. BTW, the protagonist is an airhead. Unusual but interesting plot, Freida’s a Genius. Finished this in one sitting. The paperback print isn’t good from Amazon, few pages double letter prints. Taking away 1⭐️ for poor book print quality.

I predicted every bloody thing on this book and yet I enjoyed it thoroughly. The magic Freida creates is on next level. Maybe I am a little biased towards Freida McFadden’s books, because I absolutely Adore her writing style.Like always, there were cliff hangers, there were amazing characters and there was amazing plot. For for someone who is a beginner to trade as world, you might love it, but someone who is familiar with her writing might predict the story.On the hole, I enjoyed the book because it’s just a kind of book. I needed to read right now.

The story is boring in the beginning, there's a bit of tension as to what actually happened on the fateful night which continues till the end. The ending is satisfying. There's a big twist and a unrelated character being the mastermind (like always in Frieda stories). If you want a fast paced thriller, "Do not disturb" is better. Or Housemaid series.

I’m sort of fan of Frieda great book but not as thrilling as other previous books

I am one hell of a fan of Frieda and yet I'm not able to guess the plot twist. I don't know how she do it every time.I was getting bored recently with her same pattern of books but this one made me believe in Frieda magic all over again. It was gripping even from the beginning and I loved the confusion created throughout the storyline. As always I didn't see THAT ending..A must read Frieda book.

Ate up the whole book ,fast paced and wow what a thriller, and all those plot twists in the ending is mind blowing....loved it...Must read if you enjoy thrillers

This one was little predictable but on the list of all my favourite freida mcfadden books, it comes on second one.
