Katie

by Tony Roberts

Waking from a coma Katie discovers she has lost eight months of her life. To her horror she finds her health is so fragile she is unable to barely leave the house, let alone resume her stalled career. Worse, she has lost her song-writing ability and drifts through life in limbo. As doctors seek to find a solution to her health, she reaches out to old friends to try to rediscover her life. She also discovers that she has become estranged from her mother, father and her brother’s family.Increasingly frustrated with her life seemingly going nowhere, and the fact her former bandmates are enjoying a fruitful life in their own band, she becomes restless and yearns for the return to the old days of the 1980s.It is only when her niece, Louise, confronts her about her past that Katie’s rift with various family members begins to heal and begins the long, slow painful path back to writing songs. As the decade nears its end Katie vows to bring Siren back from the dead, but she will need to use all her powers of persuasion to convince an unwilling father, record company and her former band-mates that she is back and better than before.

I am flying through the Siren series!

This feels very different to the previous books. This is because it is about Katie getting her life back and rebuilding relationships with her family and the band.

You learn so much more about what she feels about herself and how others see her and it endears characters like her sister in law more.

You see Katie as a person, a daughter, a sister and an aunt. We also see the return of another loved character....no spoilers!

More sexual tension, more pop culture references, another location where Katie gets up to mischief....different book yes but still the good stuff and lol moments.
