Mandasue has played a real blinder with this fantastic novel. (Martina Cole on FORGET ME NOT)

Cracking page-turner . . . a gritty compassionate account of life on the margins. (Manchester Evening News on FORGET ME NOT)

Gripping . . . powerful writing. (Scotland on Sunday on FORGET ME NOT)

Alarming and beguiling . . . curiously exhilarating. (Scotsman on THE FRONT)
