The girl in 6E

Told in a mixture of first person and third person narrative, The Girl in 6E tells the story of Deanna, an online webcam model, who has locked herself away to stop herself from acting upon her psychotic urges, having already killed once before.

Everything is going well in her structured world of prepared food and easy money until one of her clients rocks her world with a disturbing fantasy, though when she goes to the police no one believes her. Having locked herself in her apartment with only her neighbours and her deliveryman Jeremy as her connection to the outside world, what can she do?

Comparisons to “Dexter” are perfectly valid here, we really get into Deanna's head, learn her backstory and get into her world. The short chapters keep the writing and the story fast and interesting, like any other good thriller.

With an open ending (and therefore scope for a sequel), I very much enjoyed this well paced thriller.
