Description Conducive To Books Little Face (Spilling CID #1)

It's every mother's nightmare ...

The first time Alice Fancourt goes out after their daughter is born, she leaves the two-week-old infant with her husband, David. When she returns only two hours later, she swears the baby in the crib is not her child. Despite her distress, David is adamant that she is wrong.

The police are called to the scene. Detective Constable Simon Waterhouse is sympathetic, but he doubts Alice's story. His superior, Sergeant Charlie Zailer, thinks that Alice must be suffering from some sort of delusion brought on by postpartum depressions.

With an increasingly hostile and menacing David swearing she must either be mad or lying, how can Alice make the police believe her before it's too late?

David denies it, claiming that the baby is Florence and that Alice has gone mad. The story that ensues involves murder, torture,



This is not how I wanted to start my reading year. I can't overstate how bad this book was. Well, maybe I can, but let's pretend I can't for the sake of argument/this review. There was literally nothing redeeming about this book because nothing made sense. Let me explain by going through each of the characters, and please be warned that a) this is so spoiler heavy I'm not even going to use the handy < spoiler> tag and b) it shouldn't matter because if you love yourself you won't read this:

Was a great letdown in comparison with other books by the same author. I respect Hannah as a proficient weaver of intricate webs of psychological mysteries, but this story was so haphazard, so incongruous, and consisted of a major hole or two. Completed it only to know the ending, which seemed bizarre and incomplete. The last quarter taxed my brains by flitting from one idea to another, and rapid change of scenes.

There are two reasons why I didn't like this book. One, within two chapters I was able to correctly guess one of the major plot points. Second, the resolution (really the entire final 100 pages) is full of implausibilities that could induce an eye-roll. There is even that clunky cliche of a scene in which someone in peril confesses their motivation to a crime, laying it out in such detail that no stone is unturned. Worst of all, this book breaks one of the cardinal rules of the mystery genre. I

Started well, heading for a 4 star rating, until the final 80 pages or so. The conclusion was unsatisfying for me. Far too many loose ends left dangling. 2.75 stars.

I really thought I would enjoy this one more. It started out with a lot of promise, but became much too claustrophobic for my taste! While I do enjoy a frantic tone and intense scenario, this one turned out to be very monotonous and redundant. I enjoyed the setting of the massive estate, The Elms and the fact that the wife/mother Alice seemed to be "trapped" inside and controlled by her husband, Simon and her evil mother-in-law.The story line and dialogue just went round and round too much for
