A stay-at-home mom with a past.
A has-been rock star with a habit.
A reality TV producer with a debt.
Three disparate lives.
One deadly secret.

Twenty five years ago, Jenna, Donnie, and Nico were the best of friends, having forged a bond through the abuse and neglect they endured as residents of Savior House, a group home for parentless teens. When the home was shut down—after the disappearance of several kids—the three were split up.

Though the trauma of their childhood has never left them, each went on to live accomplished—if troubled—lives. They haven’t seen one another since they were teens but now are reunited for a single haunting reason: someone is trying to kill them.

To survive, the group will have to revisit the nightmares of their childhoods and confront their shared past—a past that holds the secret to why someone wants them dead.

It’s a reunion none of them asked for . . . or wanted. But it may be the only way to save all their lives.

What Have We Done is both an edge-of-your-seat thriller and a gut-wrenching coming-of-age story. And it cements Alex Finlay as one of the new leading voices in thrillers today.

Reviews

  • A good story but it needed Agent Keller

    The only thing that I didn’t like about this story is the fact that FBI Agent Sarah Keller was not apart of this story. She had such an integral role in The Night Shift and What Have We Done. I really missed that character. Other than that What Have We Done was good. As usual Alex Finlay kept the reader guessing until the very end. Every single twist and turn of the plot led to the final act with a character who I didn’t even suspect. That’s what I like about Finlay’s novels. His protagonists are always hiding in plain sight.

  • Great Thriller!!

    I thoroughly enjoyed this new adventure, by Alex Finlay. This was a fast paced, edge of your seat, plenty of action, and not knowing what’s coming around the next corner book. If you enjoy thriller stories, I think you will enjoy this one. I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley. This is my honest and voluntary review.

  • Unreadable

    Terrible. It reads like a cliched action movie and all the characters are unlikeable.

    I’ve been looking forward to the release of this book since the announcement. I was super lucky to receive an audible ARC and to say I’m excited is an understatement. The multiple narrators for the audible version made my experience even more enjoyable as you’re able to quickly differentiate the multiple point of views. Also, I felt as if the narrators really added another layer of excitement to these well developed characters (Jenna, Nico, Donnie). I really enjoyed Finlay’s writing style, action packed, & gripping characters. This book grabs ya from the very beginning and takes you on a wild ride of thrills whilst the characters over come some serious odds. I sincerely hope the powers at be turns Mr. Finlay’s book into a movie. And highly recommend this book to anyone whose into mystery/thrillers.
