Comments: “The Next Victim” was a chilling and suspenseful drama that kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. I was wrapped up in the story and was keen to find out how it would all work itself out. The author has done an excellent job of creating a rich and textured story world with highly believable characters and giving us a genuinely brilliant twist at the end of the story.
Anabela Lewis is a compelling and flawed heroine who we grow to worry over and care for as she attempts to regain her former confidence, which Guy has all but destroyed.
From a critical perspective (& I’m nitpicking), perhaps some of the supporting players could have been fleshed out a little more. Still, overall it was an absolute pleasure to read this screenplay—a terrific piece of work from a highly-skilled writer.
