I did make the mistake of looking and trying to figure out some big twists that never came for me and the end did leave me wanting a bit more but after discussing this one with my sisters I ended up feeling very satisfied with the ending. I highly recommend. Meghan meets Agatha in the market she shops in, striking up a conversation over their pregnancies. However, what you see on the surface of their lives is not always the same as what lies beneath- and that’s putting it mildly!!

Still, it’s a thrill to see the pieces come together, in a fingers-shielding-your-face sort of way. There were occasions – particularly in the final two episodes – when particularly stressful moments led my mind to repeat the same two words again and again: Oh no, oh no, oh no ... There was action throughout the book. I don't like it when all the action is at the end of the book. The calibre of actors I got to work with was so inspiring. And our crew, lead by our PHENOMENAL director Jen Leacey, were an absolute dream," he continued, before adding: "I hope I've done this role justice in continuing the legacy from season one."

Every now and again, though, I get a small insight into what life would be like as one of the elite, vouchsafed the gift of intelligence, calculation and predictive algorithm-ism. Such a moment arrived with the advent of The Secrets She Keeps (BBC One), the six-part Australian psychological thriller created by Michael Rowbotham and adapted from his 2017 novel.

Just ask Meghan and Agatha. Both women are expecting.......expecting exactly what? Days are filled with the tapping sound of the unknown and the soul-searching deep desire for perfection. Elusive perfection....... By the time the police realised that Hayden had sent them to them a fake location, Agatha had already called Meghan’s real phone and told her where to go. Meghan escaped the police station and went to confront Agatha. The two women, Meghan, mother of two and popular mommy blogger married to a TV sports broadcaster and Agatha, who works in Meghan's local supermarket and is pregnant after a fling with a sailor, are both expecting their babies around the same time. They bond over this and get to know each other. Both of them are keeping secrets and telling lies to themselves and their partners and as the births of their babies approach, their worlds collide and threaten to destroy them and their families.

MICHAEL ROBOTHAM delivers an engrossing and angst-ridden read here with absolutely wonderful character development and an extremely enthralling storyline. The story is told in alternating chapters from our two main characters points of view, Agatha & Meghan. I equally enjoyed both of their stories and uncovering their secrets. How many times have you looked at someone and thought "now there is someone who has it all?" Well I have. Plenty of times.
