The “coworker” by Freida McFadden is a criminal story loaded with psychological offensive and aggressive assault. With the previous work “If She Knews” she achieved her international breakthrough as an author overnight. The readers' enthusiasm about the incredible twists in her thriller was so great that “If She Knews” broke all records within a very short time. In contrast to crime, thrillers focus less on the investigator's perspective, but rather tell about characters who suddenly find themselves in a life-threatening or hopeless situation and become victims of a crime, adopting their perspective. Even though, I still hoped that at least some forensic investigations should at least be logical, or shouldn't have left open. In her various books about the “housemaids” the forensic investigations were profoundly covered. “the coworker” is not Freida MyFadden best work, it was entertaining and was written straight forward to the guilty - if you get over the first 50 pages.

Not her best book

I was really happy to get my hands on the new book. The Housemaid was an incredible read and thus it made me excited about the coworker. I am unfortunately a little bit disappointed. The book really was really slow paced and not much was happening. I predicted what would happen, so that was no fun. I didn't burn for more, to continue reading. It was a book you can finish easily... but that's it. However, I did anticipate a slightly different ending but that is fine.
