The Sunflower Field by Anita Waller
The Sunflower Field by Anita Waller Oh wow! A book that starts as a domestic drama and turns into something more- so much more. One I really couldn’t put down. Alice has announced to her boyfriend Dom, that she is pregnant, having set the scene with a nice meal, candles etc. Dominic turns on her and beats her trying to cause her to abort the unborn child. Alice survives as do the twins it is found she is carrying, but she doesn't want to press charges knowing that there would be severe retaliations so moves into her mothers house where her aunt also lives and ups the security. Suddenly there is a major shift in a family drama, one that took me by surprise , so cleverly crafted and kept me immersed. This really was one of those “ just one more chapter” reads- I was truly hooked. A scintillating read by a master of the hook and drama. It made me smile and wince and pretty much every emotion therein. Wonderfully thought out with lots of human touches to make this so realistic...
