Advantages: Good psychological thriller Disadvantages: none
controlling mother Vivienne. She needs the police to believe her but feels she is running out of time.
There follows some good twists and turns before the ending and the police find themselves having to re-open the murder case of David's first wife, Laura. I won't spoil the ending for you, but it kept me guessing and this was another book I found hard to put down, and I have since gone on to read her other novels which are just as good.
We are also introduced to Detectives Charlie Zailer and Simon Waterhouse in this book and some chapters also concentrate on their lives, problems and feelings for each other, but it blends in well with the story. Charlie and Simon also feature in Sophie Hannah's other two novels which were published after Little Face.
If you like a good psychological crime thriller then you will enjoy this book. It was number one ...

Advantages: A good Read Disadvantages: I have to wait till next year for her next book
Hurting Distance - Sophie Hannah
I bought this book at my local Tesco on a buy two for £7.00 deal and it was well worth it.
I'm an avid reader and have read about 12 books this month of all different types. I tend to pick books by reading the back cover and then the first page and if it grips me immediately then I can't leave it behind.
The back of this book says "Three years ago, something terrible happened to Naomi Jenkins - so terrible she never told anyone" and the first page is an email she has written to a website called "Speak out and Survive"; you know then from the first page what Naomi's secret is, she's been raped. No I'm not giving the plot away, far from it, that's what I thought as well when I read it. I then though oh well; I'll give it a go anyway.
The next chapter is about a man she is deeply in love ...
Advantages: A good page-turner Disadvantages: none
I have previously reviewed the first Sophie Hannah novel I read and thoroughly enjoyed, so thought I would now review the second.
I must admit I was looking forward to reading this book, as I love it when I find a new author I like, and after reading 'Little Face' I couldn't wait to read her next novel 'Hurting Distance'.
I wasn't disappointed, it was every bit as much enjoyable as 'Little Face' and another page-turner I could not put down until I had finished.
A good point is that we are re-introduced to Detectives Zailer and Waterhouse and again we follow the sub- storyline of their chemistry and feelings for each other, which is a story in itself!
The story is about Naomi Jenkins - a woman with a secret.....and a married lover, Robert Haworth, whom she is passionately in love with.
Suddenly, Robert just disappears without any ...
