Blurb:
This chilling psychological suspense novel--think Strangers on a Train for the modern age--explores the dark side of love and the unbreakable ties that bind two sisters together.
Felix and Tilda seem like the perfect couple: young and in love, a financier and a beautiful up-and-coming starlet. But behind their flawless facade, not everything is as it seems.
Callie, Tilda's unassuming twin, has watched her sister visibly shrink under Felix's domineering love. She has looked on silently as Tilda stopped working, nearly stopped eating, and turned into a neat freak, with mugs wrapped in Saran Wrap and suspicious syringes hidden in the bathroom trash. She knows about Felix's uncontrollable rages, and has seen the bruises on the white skin of her sister's arms.
Worried about the psychological hold that Felix seems to have over Tilda, Callie joins an Internet support group for victims of abuse and their friends. However, things spiral out of control and she starts to doubt her own judgment when one of her new acquaintances is killed by an abusive man. And then suddenly Felix dies--or was he murdered?

Cover Review:
The cover looks interesting, has an air of suspense and is something I'd definitely like to put on my shelf!
Book Review:
Oh my God, White Bodies was one of the most thrilling and suspenseful books I've read in a while.
I found Callie to be interesting and caring, but more often than not she came off as a creepy stalker who's obsessed with her twin sister.
The plotline was absolutely amazing, and the author kept the suspense building till the end, and it was a goosebumps raising experience.
White Bodies was an unputdownable read and I finished it in approximately 5 hours, I just HAD to know what happens.
So yeah, all in all, White Bodies was a perfect novel that had me on the edge all through it. Till the end.
