If Something Happens to Me was my first book by Alex Finlay and I thouroughly enjoyed it! I liked the writing quite a lot, it managed to capture the atmosphere of the story perfectly. 

This book follows Ryan Richardson who was thought to have killed his girlfriend, Alison. Then we follow a random (or is he) accountant for a mobster. Finally, we have the POV of Poppy, the new person on the force of the police squad in the little town she grew up in. These characters have a distinct voice and tell their story which seems to intertwine. I really enjoyed how this aspect was told and did have a moment where I gasped!

Overall, this story is fun and tense and exciting and leaves you wishing you finally get to the point and unravel everything. I felt like the ending might have been a little too rushed but overall this was a wonderful thriller/mystery.

Thank you Netgalley and  St. Martin's Press, Minotaur Books for the eARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
