So I got pretty annoyed and DNFed it, but I decided to skim to the end to see if there wasn't something I was missing. What it amounts to is that my normal existence as a reader happily reading and loving the bestsellers is now marked by moments of self-doubt and slight bewilderment. As the story unfolds, we are told what happens through multiple POVs, which i always enjoy when it is done well, as it is here. She is married to husband Robert and both of them have a successful and high status career – Robert in law and Catherine in television documentaries. The Line – ”All I felt was soft filth, and it got into my skin and under my fingernails, and its stink invaded my nostrils, clinging to the hairs, soaking up into the tiny blood vessels and polluting my entire system.

We are—well, ask Bigfoot, as Brooks does in this delightful yarn, following on his bestseller World War Z (2006).This has a lot of twists and turns, great characters and will keep you turning the pages until the end.

Disclaimer would have made a more damning statement of both a marriage and the family unit if perhaps Renee Knight had left the aftermath to the readers imagination. I 'thought' I wrote a review --- (isn't the first time the the ghost buster ate them) -- but 'thanks' go to Maureen for the reminder today!

She withdrew into herself and lived apart from her husband Stephen who buried himself into his work. Author Renee Knight leaves enough ambiguity throughout the novel to keep the narrative suspenseful and interesting. However, it did kick off in interesting fashion with Catherine Ravenscroft (also a film documentary maker) finding a book beside her bed only to find it to be the story of a part of her own life she's desperate to forget! is turning into another great year for books, most especially debuts and this one is definitely going to be somewhere near the top of the favourites list come the end of the year – I was totally absorbed into the story and loved the emotion of it as much as the mystery element. I've left it a few days between finishing the book and writing the review just in case my views change, but nope, after closing the book it left my mind totally, which personally I don't feel is the sign of a great story.

The story is centered around a mysterious book the main character — Catherine (I'd forgotten her name) — finds in her home. Catherine Ravenscroft has built a dream life, or close to it: the devoted husband, the house in London, the award-winning career as a documentary filmmaker. A psychological thriller that should please even the most discerning thriller reader, the unsettling and ingenious plot of” Disclaimer” makes it stand out from the rest. DISCLAIMER stealthily steals your attention and by the end holds you prisoner – a searing story that resonates long after the final page.Now that the past Catherine so desperately wants to forget is catching up with her, her world is falling apart.

I would have otherwise rated this as a mediocre 2-3 star thriller, decent enough to pass a summer day but nothing special. Oh guys, ‘Disclaimer’ is one of these ‘Oh my God’, ‘WTF’ mind blowing psychological thrillers, that will get you hooked from the first page.Should she take the ending as a warning, all of these thoughts push real life to the periphery as she valiantly tries to keep the secret under wraps. The book’s disclaimer, about its bearing no resemblance to anyone living or dead, has been threateningly crossed out in red ink.
