Interesting Premise...

I thought that the premise for this novella was quite interesting.  I'm not giving anything away by stating that the author, David Fuentes', idea is to have the reader follow the path of a £20 Note as it travels through London from one person to another.  The book is a novella that is part of a series therefore we are only afforded a glimpse of the entire storyline.  To witness the trajectory of the note is quite thought-provoking, as it moves from one person to another, none of them knowing it's origin.  The storyline is primarily a crime series and the violence occurs quickly in the novella.  It is difficult to comment on the type of crime that the note becomes involved in, without giving away too much of the story but suffice to say that this novella should be rated for "adults only" due to some rather explicit content.  The narrator, Matthew Kerslake, does a fine job with his voice characterizations although as a male, female voices are always more difficult to achieve.  The story moves quickly and leaves the reader/listener wanting to know where the £20 Note travels next which is the sign of a good novel.   3.5 🌟🌟🌟.🌟


I received a complementary copy of "The £20 Note"  by David Fuentes from StoryOrigin in exchange for an honest review. I am not related nor friends with this author. The opinions expressed in this review are fully mine unless identified as that of another person.
