FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Partners In Crime Book Tours in exchange for my honest review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.
Saving Grace by D.M. Barr was a great book. I loved that this book had a unique plot that will keep most people guessing as they are reading. I loved this book because there was no way to guess what was going to happen and what was going on. I loved that this book kept me thinking, and I always wondered what was going on. I am for sure going to read more books by this author in the future because I fell in love with her writing. I loved that this book keeps you guessing because you are never sure what is going on and what is all in her head. The author did a great job of keeping me interested and keeping me reading. This book had just the right amount of suspense that I read it in only a few days. I also felt terrible for Grace because I can’t even imagine how hard her life had been and how hard it had to be for her family to watch her going through everything. If you are looking for a different to read, I would recommend this book to you because I know you will love it as much as I did.

Grace Pierrepoint Rendell, the only child of an ailing billionaire, has been treated for paranoia since childhood. When she secretly quits her meds, she begins to suspect that once her father passes, her husband will murder her for her inheritance. Realizing that no one will believe the ravings of a supposed psychotic, she devises a creative way to save herself – she will write herself out of danger, authoring a novel with the heroine in exactly the same circumstances, thus subtly exposing her husband’s scheme to the world. She hires acclaimed author Lynn Andrews to help edit her literary insurance policy, but when Lynn is murdered, Grace is discovered standing over the bloody remains. The clock is ticking: can she write and publish her manuscript before she is strapped into a straitjacket, accused of homicide, or lowered six feet under?
With a cast of secondary characters whose challenges mirror Grace‘s own, Saving Grace is, at it’s core, an allegory for the struggle of the marginalized to be heard and live life on their own terms.
“A psychological thriller with more than enough twists, turns, and misdirection to keep even the most jaded reader turning pages all night long.”
–Lori Robbins, author of the Silver Falchion Award-winning novel, Lesson Plan for Murder
About The Author
By day, a mild-mannered salesperson, wife, mother, rescuer of senior shelter dogs, competitive trivia player and author groupie, happily living just north of New York City. By night, an author of sex, suspense and satire.
My background includes stints in travel marketing, travel journalism, meeting planning, public relations and real estate. I was, for a long and happy time, an award-winning magazine writer and editor. Then kids happened. And I needed to actually make money. Now they’re off doing whatever it is they do (of which I have no idea since they won’t friend me on Facebook) and I can spend my spare time weaving tales of debauchery and whatever else tickles my fancy.
The main thing to remember about my work is that I am NOT one of my characters. For example, as a real estate broker, I’ve never played Bondage Bingo in one of my empty listings or offed anyone at my local diet clinic. And I haven’t run away from home in fear that my husband was planning to off me.
But that’s not to say that I haven’t wanted to…
