Author Introduction


Heleen Kist is a Dutch, formerly globetrotting career woman who fell in love with a Scotsman and his country, and now writes about its (sometimes scary) people from her garden office in Glasgow. 'Killer Bodies' is her fourth novel, inspired by her hatred of exercise.

She was chosen as an up-and-coming new author at Bloody Scotland 2018. Her novels have been finalists in a variety of awards, both in the UK and USA, and she years to some day 'be the bride'.


Blurb

BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR In a prestigious Edinburgh apartment building, gym receptionist Evie whiles away long hours doodling the deaths of residents who've annoyed her. On her birthday of all days, a man slumps off the exercise bike - dead. She tries to get help, but someone has locked the doors and the phones are out of reach. When another resident collapses inexplicably, Evie realises the deaths resemble those she drew ... and her sketchbook is missing. Was she framed... ... or is she next? Killer Bodies is a darkly humorous locked room thriller that will leave you wondering not just WHO killed all these people or WHY, but also HOW! Also contains surprising illustrations.

My Opinion


Killer Bodies by Heleen Kist is a wonderful dark comedy which hits you in the right spots.It is my first time reading this genre and I felt so good after reading this. The plot was interesting right from the first page, an absolute page turner. The characters were so hot and cold at the same time. The book is a very unusual one instead. You don't get to read such books now and then. I loved the book and enjoyed a lot.

Definitely 4 stars for the book. Thanks to Random Things Tours for providing me with an opportunity to be a part of the blog tour.
