Gripping story with characters that 'come alive' !

A very harrowing and almost realistic fictional story.
**Trigger warning** - this may not be the book for you as it covers detailed abuse.
Great twists and turns throughout, sad at times but overall, a gritty violent novel.

Annie - you are by far one of the best narrators I have ever come across ! I often look for your name first when choosing my next title !

Overall, this has been an amazing book to listen to, and I was sorry to have finished it.
Now I have to search for one as good as this one!
