The Secret Mother

Psychological thriller...yes.  Unputdownable?  Not really.  Do I feel for this woman and her lost child?  Yes.  Do I wonder where the story is going?  Sure.  Does the author lead you one way, then another, and make you ponder?  Sure.  But not for long, and not very deeply, and frankly here I am a month or so after reading the book and I don't even remember exactly what happened so there you go.  My recollection is that the ending was satisfying if not quite the surprise that the author intended it to be (I think I read too much...I saw it coming).
