Review
Nosy neighbours… I guess everybody knows them, probably has them too. I, for one, confess I sometimes (or often as my son would claim) am part of that group too. But it does not have to be a bad thing, does it? It also mean people look out for you and when they hear or something that is not quite right, they want to investigate, to help.
When you are up to something you really should not be doing, you wish they would mind their own business. What you are planning to do, are determined to do is a must. You want to unravel the mystery in order to see for yourself whether the person you love and trust with all your heart is who they claim to be. Are they really innocent or are they hiding something big?
Time to find out, but you did not realise it would come to this…
Maybe you should have let sleeping dogs lie…
It was a good story and I enjoyed the book although I thought some things were a bit predictable. 4 stars
Thank you, Karen McQuestion and Bookouture
