That opening is a great hook. This sounds like a heartwrenching novel. The lengths a desperate mother will go to...i am glad you liked this one,Linda. I will have to look for it. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteIt is very good and in parts very sad. This book made me cry in lots of places. Some I expected and some I didn't.
DeleteI hope you get a chance to read it. I should put the Amazon links on the reviews.
You have a great weekend also.
Thank you for stopping by.
