About this deal

The characters in this novel are wholly unlikeable (with the exception of young Milo) and I think the author did this intentionally, since my emotions and opinions of them changed as the story progressed. Marissa Irvine arrives at 14 Tudor Grove, expecting to pick up her young son Milo from his first playdate with a boy at his new school.

Jenny is appalled by what has happened and feels the need to help Marissa in any way she can, with the two women soon bonding under such extraordinary circumstances. I’d also definitely recommend this novel as an addictive summer read for mystery thriller readers of all ages. Un libro que recomiendo, tanto para los que leen el género del suspense como para los que recurren a él de vez en cuando. We hold no responsibility for any profit, loss, or damage caused by or due to any information available on the point, either directly or laterally. All Her Fault simmers with unbearable anxiety before the gut punch of its charged and riveting climax.Marissa in particular was an enigma, I felt there were two sides to her personality which clashed with the persona the author was trying to imply about her. A terrifying scenario, Andrea Mara cleverly weaves it all together in a very tight plot, making All Her Fault a very engrossing and exciting page-turner.

Marissa is confident, a go-getter but, with Milo’s disappearance, she is a shell of her former self, unable to function, unsure of what to do. As a partner in a local solicitor’s office, Marissa knows the finer details of the lives of many within the local community. De la evolución de la investigación te enterarás porque lo irán contando las tres protagonistas principales.

I couldn’t understand why they didn’t want to go to the police when it was possible that they might hold vital information.

All Her Fault: The breathlessly twisty Sunday Times

Jenny is in France on business and has no knowledge of any arrangements and over the next few days suspicions fall in several places. I couldn’t work out what was going on and if there was more going on here than what first meets the eye. Jenny is feeling guilty as it is her nanny who is to blame and the local gossip mongers are vicious in their assessment that Jenny didn’t do her due diligence in choosing this nanny even though she did. Her thrillers are distinctly Irish and yet universal in theme - I loved the politics at the school gates and the bourgeoise notions of the residents of Kerryglen.

As a reader you are constantly kept on tenterhooks as you are slowly drip-fed snippets of information that send you off down various rabbit holes, almost inevitably reaching the very wrong conclusion. It has a nice cast of clearly-drawn characters (albeit a lil one dimensional) but seems to be missing the necessary police presence (similar to No One Saw a Thing). I loved the relationship between the women, and the wonderful portrayal of female friendship developing even in the darkest of circumstances.

Think Big Little Lies meets The Undoing - I had a blast accusing everyone of everything, as each chapter introduced a new twist or revelation to undo my prior conviction. Despite the action popping off from page one, All Her Fault fell short for me and was very much middle of the road. Immediately, within the first few lines I was thrown into the deep end and the anxiety didn't give way until the very end.One of Mara's myriad talents is identifying those subterranean paranoias of modern life - the vulnerability of an online presence, the trust we place in strangers - and masterfully worrying at these fears to keep us hooked and horrified in equal measure all the way to the last page. Marissa Irvine arrives at 14 Tudor Grove, expecting to pick up her young son Milo from his first playdate. The school gate politics, the clique behaviour is evident in most communities today and Andrea Mara expertly brings to life all the personalities and chatter that accompany them. Milo was supposed to be at Jenny’s house playing with her son Jacob but Jacob is at another house altogether.
