Have read all of Martina Cole's previous books and could not wait to get my hands on her latest one "Close" - however I have found it very hard to get into and no where near as good as her previous books. It was very slow to start and much has been repeated throughout the different chapters. Again very much in the hard, criminal element of the East End and very much a Martina Cole read, but must say that I have been a little disappointed.
Will continue to read her books and hopefully the next one will return to her normal mode of writing. She has a strong grip on the East End of London and has made it very much her own area of expertise.
