I really enjoyed this book this was my first book by this author and I am happy to say I will be reading more by her.
So when a body of woman is found murdered in a alley way near to where Cat use to live and is the woman of an old school friend who she suspected was blackmailing Cat's father when she was younger she is worried that her father had been involved with the murder.
Cat does her best to try to get to the bottom of the case without causing to much hassle for her family.
Worried that she will lose her job over this case she still carries on feeling she had let Maryanne down when they was at school together.
So when the truth is finally found and they have got there punishment Cat still can't put Maryanne away without doing something special for her. I would highly recommend this book to people it's a book that will drag you in if your having a book block.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR.
Caz Frear grew up in Coventry and spent her teenage years dreaming of moving to London and writing a novel. After fulfilling her first dream, it wasn’t until she moved back to Coventry thirteen years later that the writing dream finally came true.
She has a first-class degree in History & Politics, which she’s put to enormous use over the years by working as a waitress, shop assistant, retail merchandiser and, for the past twelve years, a headhunter.
When she’s not agonising over snappy dialogue or incisive prose, she can be found shouting at the TV when Arsenal are playing or holding court in the pub on topics she knows nothing about.
