Summary

Do you really trust your husband?

That’s what I had to decide. I had it all. At least that’s what people told me. Beauty, brains, and a rich husband. I deserved it too. My fiancé had cheated on me with my best friend. But, I won in the end, or at least I thought I had.

Until Christmas of 1999. My ex-fiancé, Danny, showed up at my parents’ house, wanting to talk to my father. Danny’s a police officer, and my father’s a retired officer. A six-year-old girl had disappeared without a trace, resembling a case my father had worked on years earlier.

My parents still loved Danny, the gregarious local cop. A man’s man with manners. What’s not to love? My introverted and awkward husband, Jason, couldn’t compete. My parents weren’t impressed by his money. Jason’s job in finance was too abstract. He made money from other people’s money, like a banker or a loan shark.

I think this made it easier for my family to blame Jason. They were right to blame him. He was alone with her. It was his DNA. It was an impossible choice for me though. My family or my husband. I suppose we all made our choices. We were never the same after that. We all suffered from his terrible crime.

Twenty years later, I had a happy life and a happy family. I wanted to forget the past, but it all came back, forcing me to choose all over again. This time we couldn’t bury the secrets. Jason. Danny. My parents. My daughter. All those missing girls. Never in a million years could I have seen it coming.

Get Redemption today if you enjoy pause-resisting domestic thrillers that will keep you listening late into the night.

A Dark Subject But A Good Read.

Phil M. Williams has never been a writer to shy away from lifes tougher subjects and this time he’s taking on one of the toughest: child abuse. Jason is accused of molesting his wife's niece and subsequently arrested. The evidence is damning and soon Jason loses everything: his wife, his reputation, his wealth and, most importantly, his freedom. The question is: was he guilty? Phil M. Williams takes his character through the worst experiences as he protests his innocence and then fights to survive prison. The writing is quick paced and the characters vivid. The story spans twenty some years and, while I won’t say what happens, there are some tough moments for Jason and the family of the victim. This is a good read but understandably not for everyone considering the subject matter. It has tension all the way and the finale was really thrilling.
The narration is top quality with the reading split between male and female narrators adding to the experience. They both deliver a very polished and professional performance bringing Mr Williams' story to life.

Excellent book, highly recommended

One minute your life is perfect, happy and safe, the next minute something unthinkable happens.

Imprisoned for a horrific crime and abandoned by his loved ones, Jason's life falls apart.

Watching her husband be arrested and fighting against what she thinks she knows and what seems to be the truth Michelle's life falls apart.

This is the start of the breathtaking journey Phil takes you on in this book. The subject matter is dark and there are dark issues along the way, but they are not over played.

This book provokes thought, breaks your heart and makes you wonder what would you do in that situation.

Loved It!

Arrested and imprisoned for a sexual assault on a minor that he swears he didn't do, Jason's life is ripped apart when his wife's family turn on him.

Twenty years later and the families secrets start to emerge and reveal a decades old conspiracy that thrusts Jason back into the limelight following his release from prison.

An excellently well-written story, full of intrigue that deals with the difficult subject of child abuse

One of the best books I've ever listened too!!!

Publication dates: Kindle 1st September 2021, Audio 8th March 2022 and Paperback 6th September 2021. 





This is the first book I have read by this very talented author but it most certainly won't be my last!!! It is also the first book in the 'Twisty Crime Thriller ' series. 



'Redemption' discusses some topics that may upset some readers or may not be suitable for others. I like to point this out ahead of time in my reviews so you can judge if this book is for you or not. In this book Phil discusses/includes child abuse, graphic scenes , strong language, $3xu@! @$$@ult, r@p3, p@3d0ph1li@, drugs and knife crime. I would recommend a reading audience of 18 years plus due to these topics. 


 



WHAT did I just read!!!! WOW!!! I mean seriously Wow!! I was NOT expecting that lot fair play!!! This has GOT to start with a MASSIVE WELL DONE Phil Williams!!!! Ooopps sorry, yes, needed a minute to get over that but I've just left you hanging there... Sorry.... Let me tell you more... 





Firstly let's start off with the writing style, etc!! This book is an extremely well written book by this amazing author which had me hook line and sinker!!! It is so smoothly and fantastically written with vivid and evocative descriptions I completely forgot I was even reading a book a few times. The synopsis, title and cover really fit the storyline. 




As you can tell I LOVED the storyline!!! I found it to be realistic, very fast paced and I read it in a day. I loved the setting and atmosphere, characters and just well... Everything!!! This is one of those epic storylines that really does show how one moment in time can change so many lives!!! I absolutely loved this twisty and gripping thriller!!! Phil uses multiple perspectives in his storyline and managed to weave them altogether perfectly. We not only get to see what is happening from the view points of Jason, Michelle and April but also from both the past and present timelines spanning over 20 years. Phil weaves the multiple protagonist and multiple timeline perspectives together perfectly to slowly drip feed the reader just enough information to see what is going on and why without giving anything away that spoils the explosive twists!!! 


As you delve deeper and deeper into the storyline secrets are revealed, mistakes are made and the pace gets faster and faster!!! During the book there are so many butterfly affects which goes to show how one small action can have such a large ripple affect which could continue for years. This book was extremely fast paced with something constantly happening to keep you addicted. Every time I kept telling myself one more chapter the one I was in ended at a point where there was no way I could stop reading so I absolutely devoured it in one sitting!! It was absolutely ram packed with romance, lies, heartbreak, crime, drama, secrets, mystery, jealousy, family, revenge, heartbreak, tension, suspense and absolutely everything you could ask for in a gripping and heart racing thriller. I was constantly guessing and questioning myself about what was going on and when everything was revealed I was absolutely shocked and had been completely wrong about everything!! This is not an easy feat considering how many books I read a year so a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS Phil!! I have read hundreds of psychological and thriller books and it gets harder and harder to keep my interest and to shock me but Phil managed it hook, line and sinker!!! Just absolutely brilliant fair play and everything linked in and wraps up perfectly!!! I cannot remember the last time I flew through a book so quickly. Each and every time I went to put it down to do something my fingers were itching to pick it back up as I just HAD to know what happened next!! Phil's evocative writing skills and Tristan and Mia's fantastic narrative skills ensures you are dragged deep into the storyline seeing everything that is happening and feeling the tension and suspense throughout.


This is one of the few books that I have listened to 100% on Audiobook. If I listen to a book on audiobook I usually also read the physical book between but this time I listened to the whole book and I was impressed! I must say a HUGE congratulations to the narrators Tristan Wright and Mia Valyn who both did an amazing job bringing this story and the characters to life with both male and female characters.  I would listen to it in the car and while walking at any opportunity. I'm not only looking forward to reading more books by Phil but also to listening to more books narrated by Tristan and Mia!



I was on the edge of my seat and biting my nails wondering what was going to happen next. Phil tackles some very sensitive topics such as child abuse but does it in a sensitive manner which is vital when exploring these issues. It is also evident that he has done his research into all the subjects he has covered including the criminal justice system and it absolutely shines through the pages!!! A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Phil as it is a pet hate of mine when a book is littered with unnecessary errors due to the author not doing enough research. I can't say more than that as I don't want to spoil it for future readers so if you want to know you'll have to grab yourself a copy!! You won't regret it!! The second I have finished writing this up I am going to add all of your books to my wish list and I cannot wait to get hooked into the next book in this series which is called 'No Good Deed' and promises to be just as epic as this book and I cannot wait to read it!!!!


One of the BEST books that I have EVER listened to!! Seriously, grab your copy now you will not regret it!!! 


Just like with the storyline the characters come to life with Phil's fantastic writing skills and Tristan and Mia's amazing narrative skills. They are well rounded, complex, realistic and strong making them all the more believable. My heart absolutely broke for two characters in particular and it made me absolutely sick how certain things played out. However, I won't go into any more details as I don't want to risk giving anything away but Phil really has done an amazing job constructing an addictive and explosive psychological thriller with fantastic and varied characters that you just won't be able to put down!! Along with Mia and Tristan's amazing narration this is one of those epic books that you can read anywhere, anytime but grab your tissues at the ready. I am NOT a people person and can watch horrors, etc with no problem but cry at an animal, even a cartoon one , getting injured but Phil actually brought me to tears over fictional humans which is an achievement in itself so well done (on making me cry lol)!! I would absolutely LOVE to see this turned into a movie and would wait up all night to get tickets to watch it!! I cannot wait to get stuck into more of his books and I really hope he continues to write psychological thrillers as he has definitely got one heck of a talent for them!!! An absolute must read!! 



Congratulations Phil on an explosive success!!! I would like to welcome you to my favourite author club!! I'm off to add the rest of your books to my wish list as I cannot wait to get my teeth into the rest!! Here's to your next success  🥂!!! 



Clear your schedules before picking this up as you will not be able to put it down!!! 





Overall an absolutely page turning, addictive, gripping and explosive must read that will keep you addicted from the very start to the mind blowing ending!!!  




408 pages/ 9 hours 39 minutes 



This book is just £4.99 to purchase, free with kindle unlimited, £15.24 on paperback and £16 for the audiobook via Amazon which I think is an absolute bargain for this book!!! 



Rated 5/5 (I LOVED it )
