Blurb:
All killers have a motive. People don’t kill out of necessity; people kill because they want to kill. Would a mother murdering her own child have a motive too? He has seven days to find out.
"If you are in jail in the first place, there was already a certain part of your humanity that wasn’t in sync with the actual world."
My thoughts:
'In My Head' is the story of a criminal psychologist whose job is to meet different criminals before their execution and give a verdict on their mental stability. This is done after speaking to the criminals and forming a non-judgmental opinion about them. Even though he had met a number of prisoners before, inmate #436 was different from the rest.
The convict was a mother who was charged for murdering her own child. She had seven days to prove her innocence. During the first few days, he failed to make a conversation with her. But as the woman began to narrate her experience and her thoughts, the psychologist realizes that something very wrong was messing with his head.
"I was trapped inside a head and I was restrained from looking around. "
Likes:
♥ It was a quick read.
♥ The narration is pretty smooth.
♥ The writing style employed by the author is commendable.
♥ The author creates a perfect psychological thriller in just a few pages.
♥ The book is extremely low priced. (isn't that amazing?)

Dislikes:
💔 The book contains gory descriptions of the murder (which even though I didn't mind) but may not seem appropriate to some readers.

Recommend?
A BIG YES. This book is a treat for the people who enjoy reading psychological thriller.
