BUT WHAT CAN'T YOU SEE?

Now, there's something chilling in the air.
Who secretly hates everyone?
Who is tortured by their past?
Who is capable of murder?



Have i mentioned that I love Tammy Cohens books ? she is a genius in her genre. I  started  first with first one missing and I instantly bought the paper back and will keep an eye out for signing event to meet her and get her signature on my book.  Like all good mystery/ suspense books I was completely confused for a couple of chapters and then I started to imagine theories about who did it and what it was they did. instantly I took a liking or disliking to certain characters.

Sarah - she is a little bit of a mess at the point the book is at, struggling with her job and two little children she really could do with someone on her side.

Ewan - well he is a bit of a charmer and he flirts with anyone of the opposite sex. Has a thing for the new boss.

Gill- loses her job at the beginning and we don't see much of her but certainly feel for the woman.

Anne - such an interesting Character and she impressed me by not being swayed in her opinion.

Paula- again she needs someone on her side, she isn't a lazy person just a little set in her ways and i think fate and people shit on her a bit. 

Amira - i didn't gel with this character at all which was a bit sad. she seemed more than a little self centred. 

Charlie- seems like a sweet guy but so alone. he would make some man a wonderful partner but i think he has a tendency to choose the wrong ones. 

Chloe- such a sweet girl who wants to please everyone but has such a crush on Ewan that she accepts his offer of a one night stand but still wants more even tho she was told it would not be more. I think she may have a limit to how nice she can be.

Rachel - comes across as a bitch but sometimes i wonder if thats a facade of being the new boss and starting as she means to go on. OR maybe she is just a bitch. 

 A great book that will have you guessing for hours.
