Page Turners – April 2022

After a last-minute change of venue caused by the illness of the planned hostess, the Page Turners met to discuss ‘Trust Me‘ by T M Logan and were pleased to welcome another new member.

The book begins with Ellen trying to help a stranger. She agrees to hold a baby for a flustered young mother sitting opposite her on the train while the woman makes an urgent call. Then the train pulls into a station and Ellen is stunned to see the woman step off the train and rush away down the platform, leaving her baby behind. She discovers a note in the baby’s bag, three desperate lines scrawled hastily on a piece of paper asking her to protect the baby and to trust no-one, including the police. We were intrigued when the book was introduced to us and looking forward to our first thriller. The book was gripping from the beginning and most who read it enjoyed following the twists and turns of the plot although some found it a little confusing and too improbable. We won’t give away any spoilers but will say that we are encouraged to look for more books by the same author.

Next month we will be reading ‘The Reading List‘ by Sara Nisha Adams and this will be followed by ‘The Red Tent‘ by Anita Diament and ‘The New Neighbours‘ by Diney Costeloe. Do get in touch via enquiries@u3a.dawlish.info if you would like to be part of our discussions.
