'A dark psychological thriller with a shocking twist'
A. R. Klint

Two women's lives collide when a husband, father, and son is accused of unspeakable crimes.

Kate thought she'd never have to set eyes on the man she blames for ruining her childhood again, but she was wrong.

Teresa has always stood by her son, believing in his innocence, but the evidence is compelling.

When a trial date looms a shocking event turns both their worlds upside-down, forcing them to confront their darkest fears.

Can Kate accept the past she's tried hard to forget and is forgiveness possible for Teresa, the mother of the man painted as a monster?

    This is the first book written by Louise Mullins I have read, and it won’t be the last! I love her writing style; being very easy to read, with believable dialogue and a great pace. All the while, I was reading, I had my ideas on the twist, but it was still a shock how it all fell into place. I loved the way we switched characters to tell the story. A very clever story, told in a very accessible way!
    I particularly liked the way we heard Teresa’s side of the story, as the mother of the ‘monster’ showing us the viewpoint of nature vs nurture. It’s a sensitive subject, but go read it!

    After reading the reviews I was looking forward to reading this book, the book is written well but the determination the author has to give it a 'twist' leaves it not making sense. Not so much a twist as a nonsensical conclusion.

    An early morning raid on a property is what opens this story. The target is a paedophile and they need to gather as much information as possible.

    To all intents and purposes, Teresa is a single mother. Deserted by her husband whilst their son was very young, he had no input in the child;s upbringing.

    Anthony has no idea about right and wrong and his Mother hasn't been able to have an impact on his behaviour. What drives him is a mystery. She eventually feels that he is completely out of control.

    A demanding and difficult baby Teresa struggled with him not knowing how or where to get help. He was a very late developer both mentally and physically. Because of his inadequacy in social situations neither mother nor son had friends.

    We meet Kate, a middle-aged mother who has carried the burden of what happened to her all these years. She grew up knowing Antony and his wife Jacky, She has put off telling her husband about her past and feels that now is not the time either. Like a lot of abuse survivors, she carries the weight of guilt.

    The news reports Anthony's arrest and to begin with, there is speculation about his actions.

    As Kate begins to suffer from panic attacks, she finds herself unable to concentrate and she takes sick leave which is totally out of character.

    This is a very emotive subject and the author has obviously done her research. It is well-written nd the characters believable.

    I chose to read this book and all opinions in this review are all my own and completely unbiased. My thanks to the publisher for this opportunity.

    Just finished this. Reading it I found it a good book but what I liked about it was that right t the end I hadn't sussed it! In most books I read they can be really gripping but you guess who dunnit and you are generally right and it's a weak ending, but this had a right plot twist at the end.

    Didn't like the intro, instantly disliked the "first person", and the poor grammar and punctuation switched me off. Sorry, might have ended up as a decent story but I checked out very early.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 February 2017

    This story is told by several of the main characters. Teresa is the mother of Antony Wells, a man in custody accused of rape and viewing child pornography. She’s convinced of his innocence. Kate is a woman plagued by memories of what he did in her childhood and which haunt her still. The detectives trying to make a case against him can’t get her to open up. She hasn’t even told her husband. The police find their case crumbling away, in spite of the murder of his accuser.

    It’s a complex story with many points of view and the truth isn’t obvious. I found Antony Wells an intriguing character with a difficult upbringing and a strange lack of emotion. I felt we never got to grips with him and his motivation, although the mother’s internal dialogue was fascinating. How far are we responsible for our children’s future character? Would we really know if he turned out to be a bad ‘un? Unfortunately, the book needs proofreading as its errors were a big distraction. I know, however, that not everyone is put off by this. Just be aware of it if you are.

    Edit. The author has informed me that the book sent out by Amazon on release day was an old version. If so, some of the above may not apply but I was only able to review the book I bought.

    Definitely not my favorite. There were typos, awkward sentences, inconsistencies, and rough transitions. I wouldn't call it much of a "thriller." I appreciate that the author presented the situation from different perspectives, and allowed the reader to see how events affected everyone involved. It is extremely rare that I would say this about a book, but I think that this story would translate better as a Lifetime movie.

    This is my first book by this author and will not be my last. The book starts off with Antony being arrested for possessing child images. The story is told through Kate and Teresa. Kate whose life was affected by Antony many years before his arrest and Teresa as his mother and how it was to raise this difficult child with issues and problems. I especially liked Teresa's story, it was very interesting to hear about Antony and how “different” he was and how it affected her life as he was growing up. There is also D.I Silver who is investigating Antony's case and her point of view. This was a very good read, a more of a read between the lines for me at the ending, I was actually a little confused until I dug a little deeper at the meaning between everything, very nature vs. nurture.
