 Unputdownable September 8, 2008
I loved this book and read it in 24 hours (including doing a full days' work). The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because I thought the storyline was slightly far-fetched. However, it was exciting and easy to read. A real page-turner.
 No time for anything else.... September 6, 2008
I couldn't put this book down. I really had no time for anything else whilst reading this.
A bit of a poor end to the story but a great read up till then. A real thought provoking plot with the story told from the husband's point of view, which made a nice change to the usual third person narration.
Highly recommended read chosen by Richard & Judy.

No Time For Goodbye
I have to say, I enjoyed this book immensly as a page-turning sun-bed read. My only real critisism is the last page. What a load of rubbish. You'd have to read the book to understand what I mean, but basically, we are supposed to believe that after her 14 year old daughter is dragged home stinking drunk after sneaking off out to 'go parking' with the local bad boy, the mother writes her a soppy letter all about how much she loves her, and that even after she (the mother) is dead she'll always be watching over her. Yeah right! What I find even harder to believe is that no other reviewers have picked up on this, the one thing that ruined the whole book for me.

Don't waste your time on this, I gave up on it two-hundred and something pages in. Some of the main points:
>basically juvenile,
>predictible plot,
>Poorly Written,
>Obvious plot explanations in character dialogue...etc
This could be forgiven if you cared about the characters, or even what happens, sadly however, this is not the case.

No Time For Goodbye
The opening chapters get off to a great start, sadly followed by too much character explanation of emotions that have no real depth and frankly become less believable as time goes on, inevidably half way through not only do you know how it's all going to end, you can't help but feel you are immersed in a screenplay for a TV movie. As crime thillers go... this is pretty disappointing.
