HER PERFECT SECRET by T.J. Brearton-psychological thriller-

Oooh!! One to inveigle you into the pages and keep you there. 

Many years ago, Emily, a psychotherapist, treated an eight year old boy

in conjunction with the police as he had seen his mother kill his father.

Wind forward and Emily is expecting her daughter to arrive back from

university with yet another boyfriend. The boyfriend looks just like Tom,

the young boy, only Joni introduces him as Michael- her fiance.  Emily

racks her brains to try and remember any information that might tie in

with what Michael is telling them- the trouble is that as he was very

much a minor at the time the case notes were sealed. She is worried

about her daughter as at the time something didn't quite ring true and

when she makes a few calls things could be about to get even worse.

This is just the sort of book that I love. Pretty much an instant mystery

from the beginning that as the pages turn although some parts are

answered the mystery gets ever deeper and more complex and you

cant see where it is going. I liked Emily- although very protective of

her daughter she has an instinct for the truth and hence a radar for

when things don’t sit right. 

 A wonderful twist that I didn't see coming and a brilliantly thought out plot.

A thoroughly enjoyable read.
