I liked the story but my only criticism is that it kept jumping back in time without any warning and when it happened first, it was confusing as I thought I had missed something. Having said that I did enjoy it and would definitely read more by the author.

I have been waiting for the latest Jacqui Rose book for what feels like forever, Toxic has been a long time coming. It’s the tale of Bree, a lady who finds herself in unfortunate family circumstances. Both her Mother in law ‘Ma’ and her Husband are evil and involved in some very bad things. The story also includes some old school crime with Vaughan, Alfie and Frankie, with an ex-wife or two thrown into the mix. Initially, I struggled with the plot as found it hard to follow; however, once I got my head around it I really enjoyed it. It’s gripping, but not as fast paced as some of Jacqui’s previous books, which I have loved. It’s a warm welcome back and I am really looking forward to her next book now.
