Brilliant *****
What a bloody brilliant book...i brought it as i wanted to read the book before i watched the TV film they made of it...and is now my favourite book of all time...i love everything Martina Cole writes but this is by far the best out of all so far...has a really gripping story line...only downfall being that is was a bit slow to start with but got going within a few chapters...the characters are either completley loveable or loathable...and gives us a bit of insight into what really happens behind bars...the only bad thing i have to say about Martina Cole is that she uses certain words far too much and sometimes can get a bit grating...her favourite two seem to be "proverbial" and "consensus" but thats her only faults...she is my favourtie author and even the less gripping books are still brilliant with a majic twist at the end that no one could foresee...so if you also love Martina Cole or even just enjoyed one or two of her books you will love this...!!!

Brill
It was a little slow in the begining but WOW!! This book is brill - There are some fantastic twists through out the book. This is a must read!

Slightly disappointed
This was my third Martina Cole book. I loved the Graft, I thought Closer was ok, but this one I really didnt enjoy that much. I am told that some of her other books are really brilliant, so I havent let this put me off.

I think overall the story line was quite good, I just found it wasn't gripping. I didnt find myself not putting it down. Normally I read a good book in a few days, but this took me well over a week to read it.
