The Rumour by Lesley Kara

4.0

I flew through this book in 2 days it was that good!
Joanna accidentally starts a rumour that there is a child killer living in her home town of Flinstead to try and fit in with the other mum's to help her son Alfie fit in at school and make more friends.
This book was full of twists from beginning to end and when I thought I'd figured out who it was another twist came along and changed everything! The gossiping mum's and their circle was portrayed brilliantly and I can just imagine this is exactly what it's like at every school gates in a morning. You are left on the edge of your seat throughout trying to finish it as soon as possible to get to the answer!
