I absolutely loved this novel. It pulled me in to the story right from the beginning. This was excellently written and a real page turner. You really got to know all the character,s and the story pulled me in from beginning to end. I loved the fact that it is based around a school and the pupil,s past and present and how involved a lot of the parent,s get in the school and the influence some of them have ! The ending is good... It keeps you guessing - was he pushed ? ( and who by? ) was it suicide ? Did he fall ? This book was a real page turner and so well written. I haven't read anything from this author before but l definately will look for this author again. You got a real insight in to most of the character,s life,s and personalitie,s and even with the Mother you think you don't like the story is written so you get to understand why she is like she is. This was a really good read
