Those Empty Eyes is a psychological thriller with some legal elements by author, Charlie Donlea. This author was new to me but I have long seen his books recommended in thriller book groups and was excited to read this one. The premise of the story started out really strong, Alex Quinlan's family were killed and she was the prime suspect. Alex's quest to find the truth is the core of this psychological thriller and I felt invested in her story and outcome. There were alot of subplots to keep track of and characters who seemed to come out of the blue. I found it a little hard to keep track of at times especially if I'd put the book down for a day or so and picked it up again. For almost the whole book, it was a 4 star read until that ending. Straight up 5 stars. Despite the convoluted parts, I really enjoyed this book and can see why this author is recommended highly.
Thank you to the author, publisher, and Netgalley for an arc of this
