Hide Her Name: The Four Streets Trilogy

Product Information

I thoroughly enjoyed the first book and read it in a couple of days and I became totally absorbed by the story and the characters. After listening to 'The Four Streets', I had to know more and find out what happens next in the lives of the characters. In the Four Streets in Liverpool, a dreadful murder has been committed, and 14-year-old Kitty Doherty is pregnant with the dead man's child. This secret is so dangerous that her mother, Maura, and the redoubtable Kathleen, her best friend Nellie’s grandmother, decide the girls must be spirited away quietly to Ireland to await the birth of the baby.

I almost gave up reading but later on it became very interesting and involved, it still jumped about but by this time I had become used to the drift of it and could keep track better.My books are based on the streets of Liverpool, or in the Liverpool hospitals where I trained as a nurse, or at one of my favourite places in the world, the west coast of Ireland. This gripping follow on from the bestselling The Four Streets finds the community alive with rumours and gossip after the murder which rocked it to the core. As a child, my Irish grandmother, Nellie Deane, would often whisk me away to her rural village on the west coast of Ireland and immerse me in the scent of raw peat and Holy Smoke. So many loose ends to tie up - well done to Nadine Dorries - I only wish I had a fraction of her talent!

I recognised the caring and uncaring nuns and felt that she gave a very fair picture of the close knit Irish Commnity. Glad I hadn't taken notice who the author was because if I had realised it was the MP I probably wouldn't have bothered reading it. I thoroughly enjoyed it despite being thought provoking and bringing back memories of my Catholic school. The characters are engaging, the streets scenes cinematic and the theme of the novel powerful' The Times. Captivating, phenomenal and touching' ― 23 Review Street --This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition.I find it hard to imagine how the families could have so many children whilst so poor, but then I am not Catholic.

And as for leaving Kitty in that awful place in the charge of those malicious nuns, well, I almost gave up on the book entirely!

I also was so glad that "Kitty" found her inner strength and herself, as I was dreading her crumbling under the cruelty of the regime in the laundry run by the nuns. But there's more than one reference to blue and white Panda police cars which did not appear on the streets until the mid 1960's. She trained as a nurse, then followed with a successful career in which she established and then sold her own business. I promise if you get caught up in these peoples lives it will be just like your setting at the table gossiping with the rest of the neighborhood ladies about the comings and goings cause none of them miss a trick. She has been MP for Mid Bedfordshire since 2005, and is presently serving as Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport.

One final query - Simon change brands for obvious reasons - almost as an aside -- but then apparently changed back again? The characters are engaging, the streets scenes cinematic and the theme of the novel powerful' The Times . Not my usual genre but downloaded the free sample of "Hide Her Name" and then I just had to read the rest.

In the Four Streets in Liverpool, a dreadful murder has been committed, and 14-year-old Kitty Doherty is pregnant with the dead man’s child. However, unlike the first book which centred only around this area, in this book the story goes back and forwards to Ireland as we follow Kitty and her story.
