8.20.2025 - Imaginary Strangers

Imaginary Strangers by Minka Kent 

Many thanks to NetGalley and Amazon Publishing | Thomas & Mercer for gifting me a digital ARC of the first book in a new series by Minka Kent.  All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4.5 stars rounded up!

Camille has it all - a loving physician husband and two young children.  But she's keeping a big secret - she had a traumatic childhood and has been diagnosed as a sociopath.   She has to hide the truth, because she knows that if her mother finds her, she'll kill her.  But when 6-year-old Georgie comes home from school talking about a new imaginary friend who knows way too much, Camille is terrified.

This was a gripping psychological thriller that had me turning the pages as fast as possible.  Because just what was happening here?  Told in the present as well as in the past via therapy sessions, you can feel the fear that Camille is experiencing for the safety of her family.  I was shocked at the ending and never saw that coming.  I'm on to read the next book because I have to see what happens!
