They’ll Take Everything starts with an emotional David Dale in his therapist’s office, recounting the trauma induced by losing his beloved family, a tragedy that cost him his practice and left him living as a recluse. After several years of pain and regret, David decides to open a charity helping with homelessness in London. But this beautiful deed soon catches the attention of organized crime, threatening David and his fellow co-founders.
A powerful social figure steps into David's new life, bringing his charity far more attention than he ever expected. This increases public and governmental approval for the philanthropic cause, but things take a dark turn after a break-in at the charity’s office and a cryptic message that sends shivers through the founders of Down Dream. Several occurrences over the following weeks led them into a myriad of tumultuous events.
CH Connor takes the reader through a psychological journey of intense loss, manipulation, and suspense. We're kept in a thrilling maze of trying to figure out who might be the accomplice to this tragic manipulation. David Dale’s strength is highlighted throughout his perseverance to keep the charity going despite severe threats to his life, family, and co-founders.
They’ll Take Everything is a compelling read that gives you the suspense of watching someone face an unknown but persistent enemy. While the story delivers suspense, it follows some familiar patterns and could have been more intense. The unexpected ending, however, makes up for the slower pacing in the middle.
I would recommend They’ll Take Everything to readers who love deeply emotional psychological thrillers, but note there are some darker themes that sensitive readers may want to be aware of. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily
