Plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing
Rock Paper Scissors is the story or Mr. and Mrs. Wright, told from dual perspectives. The Wright's marriage is in trouble and they think that a trip away may be just the fix that they need. When a trip to the Scottish Highlands falls into their laps they don't think twice about why they won the trip or what may be waiting for them when they arrive. It doesn't take long after they arrive at Blackwater Chapel for the two of them to start to feel like their mysterious host may have ulterior motives. Neither Mr. or Mrs. Wright knows what to expect as their trip unfolds but they both know that this trip will be the end of their marriage, one way or another.Having read Alice Feeney's previous books I knew to expect twists and turns and I was not disappointed. I love that this book is written from multiple perspectives, using different takes on the same situations. I love the sense of suspense and confusion that Feeney creates, among both reader's and characters. The only reason that this is not a five star book for me is that I saw the ending coming about halfway through. Great read overall. I will be highly recommending this one to all of my reader friends.

Atmospheric, eerie and isolated.. loved it!!!
With author Alice Feeney I always know I’m in for a real treat when she releases a new book. Rock Paper Scissors is written with an atmospheric intention that made her story come alive for me. I loved the eerie, dark-toned setting of an isolated centuries-old chapel sitting out in the middle of the Scottish Highlands. Add to that the dismal weather. A he**ish winter snow storm, making you feel a bit claustrophobic, and utterly frightened to be pinned in with no way to reach help if needed.This is a classic psychological thriller with a slow build of tension and suspense that kept me hooked, short chapters that keep the plot moving, and is told in multiple perspectives with unreliable characters I did not trust.I flew through this trying to piece together what’s going on, creating all of these theories in my mind which I could only guess at through most of the book. I can’t really give any more away due to spoilers because there’s surprise elements, every chapter reveals something more interesting. I liked how Alice Feeney kept the twists coming — after the one BIG twist, there’s still things you’re finding out with two (very unexpected & least expected) twists in the last two chapters. Wow. She got me good. It was a great experience to read.I’ve read and will recommend any Alice Feeney book — all are winners!!!
