Amor e Medo no Caminho Santiago by Gonçalo J. Nunes DiasMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
A superb novel...
LOVE AND FEAR ON THE SANTIAGO PATH is a wonderfully written and richly descriptive psychological thriller by Portuguese novelist Gonçalo J. Nunes Dias. I’m a big fan of this author after having read some of his previous books, MANUAL FOR MURDER and THE GOOD DICTATOR series.
The book description gives only a sneak preview: ‘A young man decides to do the Santiago Path alone. There he meets Valeria, a young Brazilian who, after a bad break-up, is eager to start a new life. The two meet each other, walk together and end up falling in love. As they begin making plans for their future, however something unbelievable happens in the middle of the Path and they’ll have to fight, not only for their relationship but also for their lives.’
This was another fascinating and captivating read that had me engaged from the beginning. The story flowed from scene to scene with ease, and the author shows exceptional ability when it comes to storytelling. There are plenty of attention-grabbing moments in this thrilling page turner that will take the reader on a truly spellbinding journey.
‘Only for readers who like a good twist and strong emotions.’ Highly Recommended and a well-deserved five stars from me.
