From the internationally bestselling author Lesley Pearse comes the compulsive page-turner about a girl searching for the truth, which may be a little too close to home . . .

Her family is threatened and only she can save it.

When sixteen-year-old Charlie witnesses a brutal attack on her mother by two strangers she is shocked and terrified.

But after talking to the police, she realises that her father's business dealings can't be so innocent . . .

With her father away, it is left to Charlie to protect her mother. And somehow she must find out who wants to hurt her family - and why - without losing faith in her beloved parents.

Can she unravel the mysteries of the past that haunt her family?

Or will the truth wreck everything she loves?

Her novels have sold over ten million copies worldwide. Lesley has three daughters and three grandchildren and lives in Bristol.

Lesley Pearse was told as a child that she had too much imagination for her own good. When she grew up she worked her way through a number of jobs, including nanny, bunny girl, dressmaker and full-time mother before, at the age of forty-nine, settling upon a career that would allow her gifts to blossom- she became a published writer. Lesley now lives just outside Bristol. She has three daughters and two grandchildren.

I read this book Years ago, lent my copy to someone, then forgot who I'd lent it to.
I thought about the book many ,any times over the years, I could remember the title, but not the author, so never managed to find it! Then, one day I found it by pure chance whilst not actively looking for it, just browsing in a charity shop! I bought it, then came home and armed with the authors name now, I was able to find it and purchase it on kindle, never to be lost again!
I haven't quite finished re-reading it, but am thouroughly enjoying every page and am just as hooked as I was when I read it for the first time , many years ago!
I think I will try some other books by Lesly Pearse next too, as I just Love her style of writing and her believable characters.
I would, will, and already have, recommended this book to friends and family.

Lesley Pearse can do no wrong as far as I’m concerned!

Another winner for me by Lesley Pearse. I have enjoyed all of her books which I have been reading now for quite a while slowly working through my way of all of them which I have bought from Amazon. Lesley Pearse can do no wrong as far as I’m concerned. All her books are quite different which makes them really entertaining.

As expected after reading so many of her books!

This is Lesley at her best, the trouble is after reading so many of her books the story line has become somewhat predictable, the one difference this time is no pregnancy or abortion, nevertheless it it a page turner.
Not a patch on Remember Me but good enough for me to finish, I did find myself rushing through the last pages to get to what I already knew the ending would be. Still an enjoyable book.

another top read from Lesley Pearse

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 February 2009

Though I thoroughly enjoyed this Lesley Pearse novel, I feel it doesnt match up to her usual standard. The first half of the book drags at a slow pace and I felt I was waiting for Lesley Pearses usual gripping story lines to appear which in the end they do. However it seems a bit late and by then I just wanted to get to the end rather than enjoying the journey. Though Charlie is an appealing character and her story is a gripping one, I feel it could have moved at a faster pace. I still enjoyed this book and it is worth reading the story. Charlie is a lovely character and there are many heart warming characters in the story too.
