No Turning Back by Tracy Buchanan

3.0

I have loved Tracy’s other novels and I’d definitely going to be reading her next - but this one wasn't my favourite. It is clever however, clever in the opening scenes and how Anna deals with the situation and the aftermath - well I could imagine how she must feel - the fact she’s killed a boy she thought was going to attack her and her daughter on the beach.

The rest of the novel was drawn out though and the back and forth - the anguish, guilt, despair, excitement of the media... all very believable and real. It was all going towards out finding what really happened and what really was going on that night...

The answers weren’t what I expected that’s for sure, but I didn’t feel satisfied with the reasons and the why fors. If you can suspend disbelief then it could work, and the arguments to come from this book - would YOU do anything to protect your child will linger on long after the book has finished.
