Review: Queen of Hearts

Queen of Hearts Queen of Hearts by Heather Day Gilbert
My rating: 💛💛💛

Rating 3.5

This psychological thriller was intriguing from the first page, starting out with a letter from a very loyal fan, or perhaps stalker, which set the tone that the main character’s life might be in danger, and raised questions of who this stalker could be.

The plot evolved on a fast pace, with multiple possibilities for who the stalker might be, real or fictional with a suspenseful ending.

The author has written books in multiple genres and this new book in the psychological thriller genre show casted the author’s gift in the writing industry.

About the book:


Her readers love her...
but one has gotten a little too attached.

Alexandra Dubois, a NYT bestselling author, has made a name for herself by crafting twisted serial killers in her romantic suspense series. When threatening notes from an "invested reader" escalate into violence, Alex has to admit she's not safe in her own home. Although her autism makes any changes to her routine difficult, she reluctantly accepts her editor's advice to fly to his sprawling vacation home in West Virginia so she can focus on her looming deadline.

Fighting paranoia that the stalker has discovered her mountain hideaway, Alex still forces herself to write several chapters in her novel. But when a thunderstorm leaves her stranded and she hears a knock at her door, she's about to discover that life truly is stranger than fiction.

Fans of Alfred Hitchcock, Mary Higgins Clark, and Misery are sure to be hooked by this clean, fast-paced domestic thriller by RWA Daphne Award-winning author Heather Day Gilbert.
