The Art of fear- Pamela Crane-4*  

Ari lost her sister when she was young. Her parents blamed her and she was put into care. Years later she joins a suicide help group and meets a friend in Tina who has sold by her parents in order for them to get money. The story is of their friendship which quickly develops as they have much in common. Stolen childhoods, parents they couldn’t trust and a life they should never have led. When Tina finds her father dead, they join forces to try and find the perpetrator. This is a very descriptive  and well researched book- in a good way. The characters breathe life from the pages with their harrowing stories and how they approach life and you can’t help but feel for them- the art of a good storyteller. I understand that part of this has come from a true story-wow.  An interesting highly enjoyable read.
