Bravo to Twist Literary. This is a whole new way to tell a story. Four authors, four 100 page books, one event.
Each author writes about one characters point of view. It is very unique and fun and it works with Alibi.
Everyone has an alibi.
No one is innocent.
The stories all revolve around the murder of a young girl, Abby.
Each author tells the mystery from their character’s point of view, recalling what happened leading up to and after the murder. I really liked how one story sometimes filled in the blanks left in another characters story. You get a feel for each of the suspects and get to see the events through their eyes.
All of the characters are flawed, as are real people, and it makes them more genuine to me. They all have secrets that will be revealed, including Abby. You may not like all of them, but you will get drawn into their stories.
This is a great who-dun-it with all of the mystery, lies and alibis(had to say it) required to keep you searching for the clues which are doled out slowly. I had a sense of who the killer was about half way through, but as with all mysteries, you never know.
Alibi made me think and ask questions. Polish up your detective skills and put on your thinking cap. Let’s solve a murder!

Sounds really cool.
It is. It is also a real fast read. Leaves you wanting a little more.
I have read one book like this Laura, which was written from 2 different characters’ perspectives. It is a series and there are 6 books planned (so a total of 12 books). The first book’s name is Blind Sight.
Hi Ritesh. I will check it out. It sounds familiar.
Hey, having another giveaway. International! A few more coming up soon! Hope to see you:)
This sounds like something I would want to read. Excellent review. 🙂
Thank you. I enjoyed it and really liked 4 authors each writing about their own character. They were able to blend their stories very well.
