Summary: A Thriller?
Comment: There is nothing thrilling in this book. What little tension or suspense that exists in the book is generated solely by the fact that all the characters do not behave normally. None of the "terror" would occur if they had simply turned all their information and evidence over to the police. Oh no, that might be too much like gossiping! (Apparently, gossiping is a much worse sin than murder, blackmail, or theft.) Maddy, who is supposedly the heroine of the book, is so idiotic that she should be confined for her own safety. How thrilling when she tries to figure out how to purchase a padlock! But she can't and has to resort to relying on a neighbor's help. Also, I believe the RSPCA should file charges on her. She has a 'beloved' dog; yet, she continually manages to let him run away and never gets too worried. Then, the poor thing disappears for days and she just keeps thinking he'll turn up and only worries about him in brief moments when she's not worrying about her own little self. There's not much of plot or storyline here. Just Maddy's wretching dialogues with herself. Should I? Should I have? Ought I? Oughtn't I? Why? But? Then Ms Grant-Adamson is really sloppy in ending this drivel; there are no real answers in her too-convenient ending. (I will not reveal this, in the off-chance that anyone else wants to read this book.) No answers, just the haunting conclusion that the village will gossip.
