January 2018 Debut of the Month

Poppy Parnell is an investigative journalist who digs into a case thirteen years old and produces a couple of podcasts. The first interviews  the convicted murderer still claiming his innocence  of killing a history professor. The second talks to the detective who was first on the scene and found twin sisters locked in a bedroom.  We get the story through the eyes of one twin, now leading a new life with a new name.  The media frenzy whipped up by the podcast exposes the vulnerable family with tragic consequences which does eventually allow some reconciliation but not for all.  Simply written, highly addictive with the feel of a ‘young adult’ novel about it, this is a debut worth taking note of.

An intriguing psychological thriller.

I really enjoyed this book. It keeps you guessing with a nice little twist at the end. A definite page turner which you will not be able to put down. The very first few pages captured me.... Read Full Review

A brilliant murder mystery which will have you guessing even after the last page.

A great murder mystery story that had me intrigued from beginning to end. About two sisters who are split apart after the murder of their father. It hard to know who to believe they both tell lies. Lots of twists and turns especially from Poppy Parnell a journalist who has a podcast investigating the murder.... Read Full Review

Kathryn Whitfield

What a great idea for a story – a man is murdered and the only witness is one of his twin daughters.

A murder reinvestigated through Facebook and podcasts.

A neighbour is convicted of the murder but thirteen years later the case is reopened by an investigative reporter and social media becomes instrumental in the re-examination of it. I really wanted to love this book but found it a clumsy read. There quite a few plot holes and so many adverbs they become annoying. I thought the use of social media would be refreshing but it was just a lazy way to advance the narrative.... Read Full Review
