I really liked the first few pages of this book and I wanted to find out more. The lead character is a journalist with a troubled life - her drug addict brother has just died, she hates her very rich parents and she is in therapy for being nearly killed previously (this is book 2). And then her good friend becomes a suspect in a murder case she's working on. I was at first annoyed that this snippet was included in the blurb but it happens pretty early on so I can understand why.
The book had me gripped but it did feel a bit over plotted. There was so much going on in character's lives, no one had it easy. We had blackmail, alcohol abuse, drug addiction, domestic violence, child leukaemia, self harm, adoption, rape, sex with strangers and more. Saying that, I enjoyed it for what it was - a good yarn.
