Mother- Laura Jarrett-psychological thriller
A mother is driving herself and her two daughters home from a holiday. Their
father has stayed at home due to work pressures. On the way in the dark and
driving rain there appear to be very bright lights which then seem straight
in front of the windscreen. Lizzie swerves to avoid whatever it is but the
car veers off the road, through the trees and into water- deep water. Lizzie
comes to and realises she has one chance to save one daughter, not both.
What a choice. Months later the police are trying to charge her for
falling asleep at the wheel- something she vehemently denies- however
she really can't remember what did happen. Is it someone from Dan’s
past work- he is a criminal defence lawyer and has had a few threats
in the past? Did Lizzie fall asleep? What is going on and why? I really
enjoyed this-there is a wonderful air of tension to keep you within the
pages and wanting to turn faster and faster. A breakthrough and
then another dead end or twist- brilliantly written. A twist and a
wonderful ending, I loved the last part between mother and
daughter. A wonderful, highly enjoyable read.
