This starts really good and of course interesting but although there should be shocks in the storyline, I found it a bit like the others Martina Cole has written.

The story although fictional is a sensitive subject but one that isn't normally spoken about in the darker side. It was just obvious at the start who the main person was.

I love Annie Aldington and although accents can sometimes be a bit funny, nothing wrong with a giggle. She's very engaging and switches accents with ease. capturing the proper London/Essex vibe too.

I've read all of her books and I love the author but I'm hoping she can pull out some blinders. This is amongst the best but I do feel she is going over old ground a lot.

Bit predictable but probably one her best!
