What to expect

Bloomsbury presents Like Mother, Like Daughter by Dawn Goodwin, read by Laura Rollins.

A totally gripping, page-turning thriller perfect for Lisa Jewell, Emily Edwards and Lesley Kara.

Christina Valdecchi has had to face the bitchy clique of school mums for years, ever since her fall out with Lisa, the mum of her daughter’s best friend. The picture perfect parent that never misses a chance to remind Christina she doesn’t measure up.

Lisa Marco was taught that being a good parent meant making the hard choices. She understands why Christina’s ‘friendship parenting’ approach makes her fun, but Lisa’s priority is keeping her daughter safe even if she fears it’s driving her daughter away.

But tonight when Christina and Lisa get the call that every parent dreads they will have to confront the choices that brought them here.

They say mothers know best but how well do they really know their daughters?

Critics Review

I loved this absorbing suburban drama that is every parent’s worst nightmare.
Heidi Perks, author of Now You See Her
Every parents’ worst nightmare is brought to life in this thought-provoking twisty family drama centred around friendship and trust, secrets and lies. A wise and sensitive exploration of issues we hope we’ll never have to deal with.
Ruby Speechley, author of Missing
Just why is a teenage girl lying unconscious in a hospital bed, with her best friend watching over her? And why haven’t both their mothers been on speaking terms for years? So begins this twisty, easy-to-read suburban suspense novel. Containing several mysteries to keep the reader guessing and lots of amusing moments — you’re not in that hot tub again, are you, Colin? — I was hooked throughout. Compelling and ultimately uplifting, this is a most enjoyable and well-written novel.
Fiona Mitchell, author of The Swap
A fab thriller!
Tina Baker, author of Call Me Mummy
A tense exploration of family dynamics.
Alice Clark-Platts
Hooked from the first page by this toxic web of suburban frailties in the internet age, where a clash of values between two mothers endangers the very children they are so keen to protect.
S.E. Lynes
