Thanks so much for my free copy which I have just finished reading. Mixed feelings about it - part enjoyment, part irritation with some of the characters. I felt as if I was reading it as if I was watching a scary film through my hands, not really wanting to see what was happening but not being able to look away. Annoyed with Anna when she ran away and got on a flight back to England (How did she have here passport with her? It seemed to be a spur-of -the-moment decision!)
I can’t watch those films either - sorry my book made you feel that way.
Yes – good point about the passport. Actually, I just didn’t think of that! But in France you are legally obliged to carry ID (though I never do) so perhaps she would have had it on her as she is more law-abiding than me...Seriously though, I needed Anna to betray Freya - spectacularly. She was absolutely due for a breakdown. In real life I remember snapping a pencil in a meeting with social services and shouting: “I’m going to snap, like this pencil!” I actually had a little in reserve – but it set me wondering what snapping would look like. That was it.
