Set over a dramatic week when taking GCSES plus a flash forward to August results day, we see how grooming works from the point of an outsider and not one of the couple involved.
It was a dramatic read but the ending didn't satisfy me completely as we don't find out what specifically he got charged with, how Bonnie is doing and how she coped in the time following the couple's split.
Overall, it was alike Anne Cassidy's books and it did keep me entranced to read on and on.
