Ellen is innocently sitting on a train when a young woman called Kathryn sits next to her with her baby and they start chatting. When Kathryn has to take a call she asks Ellen if she'd mind holding the baby and leaves the carriage. But when the train pulls in at the next station Ellen, to her horror, sees Kathryn rushing off down the platform, mouthing 'sorry' at her. What on earth will Ellen do? She rifles thorugh the baby bag and finds a message from Kathryn saying, 'Please protect Mia. Don't trust the police. Don't trust anyone'.

Well this was certainly a thrill a minute story. Written mostly from Ellen's perspective it was very much plot led and hard to know who to believe. The characters in the story were believable and I really admired Ellen's bravery and determination - once she became attached to Mia she was not going to let her go in a hurry!

An intensely gripping story, although I did see there were certain parallels with current news events which made reading some of it a little difficult, and I did guess the bad guy in advance but it was still hugely entertaining and a real pleasure to read. This is another winner from T M Logan.
