This is a thrilling opening to a story about a woman on the run with her child. I'm guessing that she has hopped out of the frying pan into the fire, and anticipate a lot more thrilling happenings before she (hopefully) manages to escape and find happiness with her son.The dialogue is superb and carries us into the story straight away, without any long stretches of narrative to be negotiated. As a result the pace is fast, but not so fast that we don't have time to look around us and find out about Izzy's life and how she sees her new home.As always, though, it is the story that interests the reader most, and it is for this that I would read on to find out what happens to the main character and whether her fears are justified or are merely the result of her own morbid imaginings caused by her unhappy relationship.I can see this one doing very well indeed in the ratings. Well done to the writer. :)
