Hi Ladies we have a book club!!!!

WE have decided that our first meeting will be 14 Janurary 2009 at 8pm. Susan_Scripture has kindly agreed to host the first meeting, please PM her for details of her address etc.

The firs bok to be discussed is..............

NO TIME FOR GOODBYE by Linwood Barclay, I have taken the synopsis and reviews from the Waterstones website

Synopsis
On the morning she will never forget, suburban teenager Cynthia Archer awakes with a nasty hangover and a feeling she is going to have an even nastier confrontation with her mom and dad. But when she leaves her bedroom, she discovers the house is empty, with no sign of her parents or younger brother Todd. In the blink of an eye, without any explanation, her family has simply disappeared. Twenty-five years later Cynthia is still haunted by unanswered questions. Were her family murdered? If so, why was she spared? And if they're alive, why did they abandon her in such a cruel way? Now married with a daughter of her own, Cynthia fears that her new family will be taken from her just as her first one was. And so she agrees to take part in a TV documentary revisiting the case, in the hope that somebody somewhere will remember something - or even that her father, mother or brother might finally reach out to her...Then a letter arrives which makes no sense and yet chills Cynthia to the core. And soon she begins to realise that stirring up the past could be the worst mistake she has ever made...

Bookseller review
Wendy Dack, WATERSTONE'S THANET

Excellent and in the words of Lord Melchett, it twists and turns like a twisty-turny thing. It reads like a movie and I just couldn't be parted from it until I'd read to the last page.

An amazing turn pager, definitely worth reading
