Synopsis:
I did it all for you…
Cara’s boyfriend is dead. When fingers start pointing at her, she knows she’s in more trouble than she originally thought. Because Cara can see that something isn’t right.
As her carefully constructed life begins to crumble, Cara isn’t sure who she is anymore.
But maybe that’s exactly what someone wants her to think…
My
review:
When
seventeen year old Cara finally answers the phone to her unwanted boyfriend she
is relieved to hear that he wants to end their relationship. All she has to do
is to go and see him for the last time. Unfortunately things don’t go to plan
and Cara finds Joe dead.
When
a detective starts digging into Joe’s death and an old friend Ryan turns up in
town, Cara finds herself in the middle of her own investigation into the
strange circumstances surrounding that awful night.
This
is a YA crime novel and I found it written in a really good style that kept me interested
throughout the book. Cara was a typical teenager trying to better herself,
mixing with the high society. Ryan is a down to earth kid that somehow reminds
Cara of who she really is and what is important in life.
The
only thing slightly disappointing about this book is that I found the last few
chapters quite rushed. I felt they were missing the attention to details that
was so great in the rest of the novel.
Overall
this is a great book, proper page turner and hugely recommended to all who like
a bit of mystery and crime. It has some good elements of the upper classes and
their abuse of power, money and drugs and on the other side the working class
family, doing their best by their children.
Thank
you to the author and #TBConFB for access to this book in return for this
honest review.
