Truly, Darkly, Deeply is a standalone psychological crime thriller by author, Victoria Selman. This author is new to me. I loved the attention-grabbing cover and chilling synopsis and just had to know more. Already I can tell that this author is going to be someone I read over and over again. I loved the dual timelines as the main character described her childhood before everything changed. I’m a huge fan of serial killer crime stories and found myself easily engrossed in this psychologically captivating story. It’s not super fast-paced but the storyline really sucks you in and you just have to keep reading to know the final truth of what happened. Throughout the book I was torn which way I wanted things to go and found the conclusion satisfying. The characters in this book were detailed, complex and I enjoyed the concept of whether we ever really know those closest to us and what they are capable of. The book asks hard questions and delves into complex themes which are well handled. I enjoyed this one immensely and would highly recommend it to anyone who likes domestic suspense, serial killers, or psychological crime stories.
