Mummy's Little Secret by M. A. Hunter

 


Description from Goodreads:

"Four little words can ruin a life.

When Jess meets five-year-old Daisy and her mum, Morag, in a local London park, they seem a perfectly happy and loving pair. Until Daisy whispers four little words that send ice seeping down Jess’s spine…

She’s not my mum.

Determined to save Daisy, Jess becomes obsessed with unearthing Morag’s secrets. As she digs ever deeper, her friends and family start to question her own increasingly paranoid behaviour…

Four little words can end a life.

But Jess knows what she heard and she’s certain the fear in Daisy’s eyes was real. Of course she isn’t imagining things… Or is she?"

With its engrossing story line and excellent characters, this is a good psychological thriller that had me guessing until the end.

This absorbing and compelling story is told from the "before" and the "now" perspectives with the "before" being told by Jess and Morag and the "now" from the senior investigating officer, DI Mike Ferry.  You would think this would be confusing but not in the slightest; what it does do is provide layers of mystery until it all comes together.

I haven't read anything by M.A. Hunter before but if this is anything to go by, I will certainly be looking out for more.

Thanks go to HarperCollins Publishers / One More Chapter and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.
