About this deal
This story has been used so much lately that it felt like the author had succumbed to the "flavour of the month".
I almost gave up reading but later on it became very interesting and involved, it still jumped about but by this time I had become used to the drift of it and could keep track better. This secret is so dangerous that her mother, Maura, and the redoubtable Kathleen, her best friend Nellie's grandmother, decide the girls must be spirited away quietly to Ireland to await the birth of the baby.

Glad I hadn't taken notice who the author was because if I had realised it was the MP I probably wouldn't have bothered reading it.My only concern was that at times I found it hard to believe this was the early sixties as it seemed to be more 50's. The characters are engaging, the streets scenes cinematic and the theme of the novel powerful' The Times. This gripping follow on from The Four Streets finds the community alive with rumours and gossip after the murder which rocked it to the core. I thoroughly enjoyed the first book and read it in a couple of days and I became totally absorbed by the story and the characters.
