Trouble Brewin - A True Story of Sex, Murder, Love and Betrayal
Belinda Brewin has experienced more in her life than most people ever will. Never far away from trouble, she recently made the headlines when, having started a new job, her boss and his family were murdered and, in a sickening twist of fate, the prime suspect turned out to be the man who claimed to be in love with her. Even more disturbingly, it transpired that the bodies of the victims had been temporarily buried in her back garden.
By the time the book is published, Belinda will have given evidence as a key witness at the trial. Her colourful life has also included being best friend and confidante to Paula Yates, being arrested with a car boot full of cocaine and subsequently being exonerated at her trial. This is a breath-taking and scandalous read.

Sad
I read this book because I was interested in the time period of the mid to late 90'a and a fan of both INXS and Paula Yates, who was a neighbour of my father's in.Hastings and such a sweet but broken person. It doesn't do the author any favours, reasonably written, and interesting in parts, but I wonder if the author realises what an awful character comes across. She tells us little about herself, it is nearly all about her connection to Paula, still unsure whatshe ever did for a living, and unfortunately it seems there is just one more person cashing in on a bloody tragedy. There is no warmth when she writes about her childhood, her family or her own children, the only warmth towards Tiger is in connection to who she is, incredibly sad,

This is the story of Belinda Brewin, best friend of the late Paula Yates and someone involved in a drug smuggling trial and was involved (not intentionally) in the murder of a business man and his family.
It was quite a high profile case actually!
Belinda comes across a little naive at times but it's clear she did nothing wrong, more that she went along with things.
An easy read which I got through pretty quickly.
