Review:

"Mummy's Little Secret" by M.A. Hunter

My Opinion:

'Mummy's Little Secret' was some gripping psychological thriller that will keep one turning the pages to see what was coming next. What will happen when Jess [who was wheelchair bound] meets Daisy, and she whispers, 'She's not my Mum?' Jess had taken her daughter, Grace, to the part, and they had met Daisy. With all that Jess has gone through, will she get anyone to believe what this child has told her? Her husband Charlie... well, I will leave that to you to read how that went. What will happen when Jess tries to find out more about Morag, Dasiy's mom? Why does Jess become obsessed with all of this?

Interestingly, both of these ladies had issues with secrets, sympathies, and complexes that they both had, making this story even more intriguing to find out what was going on in the world. The reader will see that both Jess and Marag had problems, and as the story continues, there will be twists and turns all over the place, more like a rollercoaster ride. The characters were well-developed and defined. Some were even more interesting such as...Gwen, Sharon, Tommy, and Charlie, to name a few.

'Mummy's Little Secret' is an excellent read where family secrets drive the story, and who was this person stalking the Morag's family? To find out all the answers to these questions, pick up 'Mummy's Little Secret' and see how well this author brings it all out to the reader, and in the end, definitely pleased at the way the story turned out.
