Kindle Free Pick of the Week: The Friend Request

A thriller from Alex Ford.

Have you accepted a 'friend request' when you should have clicked ignore? Do you really know all the people listed as 'friends' on your Facebook page?

What if somebody from your past assumed the identity of someone from your present, so they could get close to you?

What if they wanted to get close to you, just to hurt you - again.

David Andrews’ life is going well.

With an imminent promotion at work he’s content in his job. His girlfriend is gorgeous and looking at the amount of friends on his Facebook page he’s very popular too.  So, when he sees a friend request from a Barry Taylor, he doesn’t understand why it makes him so nervous, he’s not sure he even recognises the name.

Eventually he forgets all about it, until the day he is forced to remember a past that was erased from his memory by a terrible accident.

Little does he realise that all the information on his Facebook page might make him a little too vulnerable, especially to a sociopath like Barry Taylor, who is intent on destroying David’s life – for a second time.

With a little help from his friendly shopkeeper David embarks on a journey of revenge and self-discovery.
