Summary

Run by Mandasue Heller is a gritty story of Manchester's criminal underworld.

After being cheated on by her ex, Leanne Riley is trying her hardest to get her life back on track, which isn't easy without a job and living in a bedsit surrounded by a junkie and a madwoman.

On a night out with her best friend, she meets Jake, a face from her past who has changed beyond all recognition. Jake is charming, handsome and loaded, a far cry from the gawky teenager he used to be. Weary of men, Leanne isn't easy to please, but Jake tries his best to break through the wall she's built around herself. But good looks and money can hide a multitude of sins. Is that good-looking face just a mask? And what's more, what will it take to make it slip, and who will die in the process?

BORING!!!

I am disappointed in this book. I was delighted when I found a book of Mandasue Heller,s I had never read. I suffered this boring story until chapter twelve and had to give up on it. I was starting to get annoyed at wasting money on this rubbish.

Awful


Dialogue was boring,cheesy and juvenile for a story that’s apparently “a gritty story about manchesters underworld” I honestly think this could have been written by a teenager. Narrator was not good, she did the ‘Manchester’ accents like they were from Yorkshire which made me cringe and I’m sure she read it out completely wrong from what the writer intended. Characters weren’t likeable, bland, nothing to them. Wasn’t gripping. Seems like it was half arsed and rushed. No deep dive into the characters. Pretty terrible to be honest. Save your credit

Disappointed

Having read all of the authors previous books I must say this one was a huge let down. A massively drawn out story line that didn't go anywhere. Don't bother!
