House of Sticks

By Marc Scott

Genre:-Psychological Thriller

Pages:-384

Publisher:-Matador

Blurb:-They are united now, two sisters who were kept apart by the cruel twists in their lives. And, despite the fact these siblings grew up at the opposite end of the social ladder, they have discovered that they share an unbreakable bond. It is like a modern-day fairy tale coming to life.

 However, the pathway to their shared happiness is littered with misgivings and depraved memories from which they can never escape. Brianna is still haunted by the tragic death of her twin brother while Poppy finds it hard to let go of the ghosts of her abusive childhood.

 It seems that the forces around them will never leave them alone. Neddy, a ruthless drug dealer is hell-bent on revenge. A worried mother who is desperate to unlock the darkest of secrets. A stranger with tattooed fingers who must face retribution for his evil sins. These women must be strong to survive.

 But remember, not all girls are made of sugar and spice.

Be prepared! This is not a fairy tale...

My Review:-I have read Marc's "House of Straw" and now I have the pleasure of reading "House of Sticks." I enjoyed reading this fast pace thriller. Two sisters, that weren't like any other sisters, as you'll find out as you turn the pages of this gripping story. The book is set in HMP Wallsgrove Prison. This prison has some of the most violent cases, as with as child abusers.

 I have to say I did enjoy reading about Poppy, she didn't have a good life growing up, both her parents were alcoholics and then she was taking into care and ended up in prison. I will say there is parts that you won't see coming. But Poppy will not talk about her criminal past.

 The author has put so much into this book that you won't want to put it down. I know I didn't and ended up reading it in one sitting.
