She is a loving mother to all her children, a brilliant cook, and keeps her council house immaculately.I don't remember MC's repetition of characters in her earlier books (which I could not put down) and suspect "More No 1 Original Fiction Bestsellers than any other author" stickers on MC's books does not apply to every book written by her. And the ending also contributed to 4 stars because I felt a huge buildup to this ending, and it was over in 1 page .

Loyalty by Martina Cole | Waterstones

As a massive fan of Martina Cole books and having read/loved the previous Kate Burrow books 1 to 3, I couldn't read to lose myself into this fourth story featuring DI Kate Burrows. 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.Life for Kate and ex-gangster Patrick Kelly is thrown into chaos when his long lost son turns up out of the blue, bringing trouble with him. All Reeva's children work for “the firm” - it is impossible, under Aiden's rule, for any of them to work honestly. Repeatedly reading the back of a bus ticket (the 'same' bus ticket) would be a superior way of spending 10 hours of my life.
