seriously, if I sat and read the alphabet spaghetti my dog had just gorged itself on, and than randomly threw up, it would be a better read.

The worlds Martina portrays never fail to shock and make you glad not to be a part of that world, however glamorous certain parts of it may appear.

Although I can appreciate the true nature of the plot and darker side of gang life I didn’t like the writing style.

Betrayal by Martina Cole | Goodreads Betrayal by Martina Cole | Goodreads

BETRAYAL is the second book of Martina’s I have read (I read THE TAKE early last year) and I cannot wait to devour more of her titles. Es una novela dura, que muestra de forma cruda la realidad de las clases más desfavorecidas e incultas de un barrio de Londres. At the age of 15, she left her school studies as she was involved in a love affair which eventually led her to give birth to her first child at the age of 19.

yo hubiera hecho lo mismo que hizo ella, creo que los padres no dudaríamos ni un minuto para sacrificarnos por nuestros hijos. Although I feel now that I know exactly what I'm getting from this author, I still look forward to her yearly releases.

The latest novel written by Cole features a new gangster character named Michael Flynn, who is considered to be a very dangerous criminal in the underworld. Aiden O'Hara is the oldest, loves his mum but knows she attracts the wrong sort of guys so he has to watch over his family. I have to say that I've read many character similar to Barry and Joey but these two vile human beings have to be my most hated characters in a book by far, absolutely despicable characters with no remorse and nothing nice about them at all.there was not much happening in the book, even though it has around 500 pages and you would expect more from that. A opção escolhida pela autora Martina Cole para retratar a vida no mundo do crime foi escolher dois personagens antagônicos nesse mesmo ambiente de contravenção: tal qual nos conta a história de Hilel e Shammai, Freddie Jackson é impulsivo e irritadiço, enquanto seu primo Jimmy é calmo e paciente. The storyline with Patrick I just felt was unnecessary with us finding out he had a secret family he knew nothing about.
