The Mother had me gripped, every available moment I was keen to read it and ended up staying up until 2am to finish it.<br><br>I did not see the ending coming at all.<br><br>Heather is a determined mother and challenging the police investigation puts the retired detectives back up, I expected him to crumble but he remained as steadfast as he had during the investigation.<br><br>The media creating their own narrative and painting Heather as a wife out for revenge. This story weaves so well, I could picture the characters.<br><br>I had a vision of Owen being like Cormoran Strike but without the disability and a journalist rather than a detective. Jodie was so likeable and so sad at the same time.<br><br>I am grateful that the author didn&#8217;t dwell on Heathers prison time, instead referencing it periodically throughout but focusing on the here and now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/review\/edit\/61653290\"><em><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>T.M.Logan March 2023 ISBN: 9781804180846\u00a0(ISBN10: 180418084X About: Framed for murder.
