Mark F, Reviewer
Always seem to love thrillers set in Australia,so this combined with the storyline blurb of parents who will stop at nothing to get their kids enrolled into the perfect school meant it caught my eye, and am glad it did
Ultra rich neighbourhood riddled with secrets and past and present indiscretions
Near Sociopathic Mum’s prepared to do anything for their precious offspring
A new Mum and Son arrival that causes feathers and cliques to be ruffled
A gala day at the best private school where the kids compete to get a place in the new school intake ( known as the ‘Hunger Games’ by some of the Dad’s )
And cakes! Lots of sumptuous alluring mouthwatering butter cream filled cakes
Seriously what more could I want in a book?
Well there was also great writing and a story that was addictive with fast snippy dialogue and a mystery or two with a fark very dark ending
Pretty much all combined to make this a perfect read for me, very enjoyable and more than a bit shocking!
What a Mum is prepared to do for her kids should never be underestimated….😎
