Another great book by Dilly Court
The superb Annie Aldington compliments Dilly Courts books to bring the characters to life, jumping from the page.
Enjoyable but unbelievable & predictable.
I did enjoy listening but found the storyline a little unbelievable (yes I know its fiction!) and a little predictable.
But, all in all, it was an entertaining listen.
