ONLY A MOTHER

Erica Wright lives a quiet, lonely life in her two-bed end of terrace. Her front door hasn't been graffitied in more than a year but that's soon about to change - her son, Craig, is being released from prison.

COULD BELIEVE HIM

Local journalist, Luke Harding is determined to warn the public. As the person who covered the arrest and trial all those years ago, he knows the kind of predator Craig really is.

COULD BURY THE TRUTH

When Luke's worst fears are realised after a woman is attacked days after Craig's release, he becomes obsessed with trying to prove that Craig was behind it.

COULD FORGIVE WHAT HE HAS DONE.

Erica is worried, too - but how can a mother turn her back on her son? And how far will she go to protect him?

Great book! Gets you right from start to finish. Narration was excellent! Elizebeth Carpenter’s books are such good listens. Stories are funny, sad, full of twists and turns and you really get such a great understanding of her characters. On a binge of her work! Just one more to go and can’t wait for more books to come from this very talented author! Thank you Elizabeth loving your books.

My new favourite story teller!
