Quite a good read
I enjoyed this book, the first I have read by this author. The characters were very well done and I did think I knew them all well whilst reading and could visualise them. The plot kept you thinking until the end although the final conclusions came in a bit of a rush.
If I have any critism it is that some of the ways Jenny spoke to friends seemed a little unlikely.
