What Lies between Us- John Marrs-Psychological Thriller
“Nina can never forgive Maggie for what she did. And she can never let her leave.”
Maggie lives with her daughter Nina. She is sixty nine and watches the world from her
upstairs window. She is chained in her room for what she has done to Nina. Occasional
chapters take us back twenty five years to when Nina’s father left and things changed.
There are things that Nina doesn’t know about the past, secrets that Maggie holds
close as she really doesn’t want her daughter to find out what happened. We also go
back just over two years -shortly before Nina captured her mother. Oooh!! This is one
of those reads that makes you slightly anxious and uneasy. You just know that there is
something amiss but not quite what. I have loved all John’s books and this one is no
different. All are captivating (every pun intended!) and keep the pages turning, hoping
for a snippet of more information and then also receiving a snippet more of intrigue.
A read that will have your head spinning and left me wondering what was real and
what was not albeit in the world of fiction. A cleverly thought out plot and one
to leave you reeling.
