Wow! Sit down and hold on for the ride! Jeanette lives alone looking after dogs in her kennels. She has never been married and lived with her mother until she quite recently died. One day a man comes in to enquire about booking his dog in and Jeanette's life changes dramatically. Years later a child is found who has never experienced life outside her room or even conversation. There is then a search of the house and what transpires is quite shocking as to what has gone on behind closed doors. After the child is adopted into a loving family, will she adapt to her new life or are there other things going on?
Oh wow! Another one of Anita’s books that I didn't want to put down. I felt for Marta and her existence. Anyone who knows of someone brought up without love knows what lifelong damage this can do. This is very sensitively and cleverly written, key sentences giving the reader scope for their own imagination of the situation. There are several twists and turns, just as I love a psychological thriller to be and the ending was just perfect. Another stunningly compulsive read from a truly brilliant author- please sign me up for the next one right now !
