Sydney Livingstone is a professional but struggling tennis player who’s on the lookout for her time to shine and become a household name. However, the last thing she wanted to be worried about was a stalker. As if that wasn’t enough, she also finds herself embroiled in a murder investigation of another tennis player, who was supposed to play against Sydney in the first round of qualifiers. Gradually, finding this stalker and the murder investigation merge into one big case, and every person around Sydney becomes a suspect.

I just need to let it out of my system that Faults by Orion Gregory was the perfect classic whodunit thriller. The suspense had me reading this entire book in one sitting, and that is exactly how I like my thrillers to be. You know the books that bait the readers into believing that they could solve the mystery by focusing on details but then end up outsmarting the readers. That's how I describe this book. The book holds the readers tight in its grip. The sections in the book from the anonymous point of view of the culprit are very riveting. The characters are written well because I doubted each character at one point or another throughout the book.

All this chaos is taking place in the midst of a tennis tournament. So, we have a lot of plot around the game of tennis itself. Not that the book requires the reader to be well acquainted with tennis, but while reading, I realized that those with a basic understanding of the game would find the book more exciting. Adding the element of a popular sport to a thriller was an excellent choice by the author. Not only would it find a wider audience, but it also makes the book doubly engaging. On the one hand, readers are anxious to find out about the person behind the threat to Sydney’s life, and on the other hand, they are also looking forward to how the tournament will proceed.

Other than one minor typing error, I had the utmost fun reading this book. For the above-mentioned reasons, I rate this book five out of five.
