This is an excellent written book which makes you think and tugs at your heart.
The plot drew me in immediately and the pace was perfect.
I felt that the book rather abruptly which was disappointing

This story had some good ideas in it. Some of the plot was good and other bits were just totally unbelievable. The ending saved it for me.

Thank you to Netgalley for my copy.

Jenni is a teacher having previously been in the military. Her hobby is doing Ironmans (swim 2.4miles/bike 112m/ Run marathon-26m) and she has won three of them. One of her pupils, fifteen year old Destiny, is known to social services and lives in care. When Jenni see Destiny in trouble- men are trying to abduct her- she doesn’t expect to be faced with a gun and more problems in dealing with authority than they are solving. Jenni’s natural instinct is to protect. Destiny’s is to flee. They set off on a journey that leads them to far far more than either one of them expected. A story of hope and life and challenges along the way. Of different types of determination and grit. This is a beautifully written book that takes you to a different plane and makes you think and tugs at the emotions , in part almost ethereal despite the rugged plot. Kate is a wordsmith of the highest quality and I wouldn’t hesitate to read books by her in the future, This has left me thinking and slightly reeling. Most certainly one to remember in a very good way 5*

I cannot understand how this book has come to be published. I read it all with increasing dislike and some bewilderment. The ending is odd with no clear indication of what happened.
I’m afraid this is worst book I’ve read in years.

Wow this book was a really different sort of thriller. Lots of twists and turns moving the plot along at speed.
Would you stand up to save a child from being trafficked ? Jenni feels as though she has no choice but to put herself on the line for one of her pupils.
Strong characters with the story told through each of their viewpoints. Engaging enough to make it worth suspending belief at some of the more unrealistic points.
Made me think about the choices made by vulnerable children who feel they have few choices.

I really, really enjoyed this book! Yes it may have been unrealistic but it made me want to just keep turning the pages to see what happened next. The characters were strong and I loved how it sectioned them and each part of the story in their individual perspectives. I had a couple of moments were I gasped at the twist but it made sense. However I do think the ending was a bit abrupt. But for me personally I found it gripping and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend when it’s publication date arrives.

I don’t quite know how to review this one! I had heard good things about it and the plot certainly sounded good. It was just totally unrealistic!!

To Keep You Safe is a strange book to review. I absolutely love the plot line but it’s not executed well. Extremely fast paced and a fun read and I couldn’t take it seriously because it’s so unrealistic.
