'Kept me guessing right until the end. I devoured it.' Claire Douglas author of LOCAL GIRL
MISSING 'A terrific page turner' Guardian ********* A doting mother or a pushy parent? Karen
Bloom expects perfection. Her son Ewan has been something of a disappointment and she won't
be making the same mistake again with her beloved talented child Bronte. Bronte's every
waking hour will be spent at music lessons and dance classes doing extra schoolwork and
whatever it takes to excel. But as Karen pushes Bronte to the brink the rest of the family
crumbles. Karen's husband Noel is losing himself in work and his teenage daughter from his
first marriage Verity is becoming ever more volatile. The family is dangerously near breaking
point. Karen would know when to stop . . . wouldn't she? ********* 'Another fantastic
twisty-turny novel by one of my favourite authors. I am always enthralled by her books and this
is her best yet' Jill Mansell 'The UK's answer to Liane Moriarty. Amazing' Claire McGowan
'Sheer perfection. The Trophy Child is gripping darkly funny and bound to induce spasms of
guilt in even the least pushy parent. I can't remember the last time I was so enthralled. I
want to stand on a mountain top and tell everyone to read this brilliant novel' Mark Edwards
