A day like any other for security chief Tracy Waterhouse, until she makes a shocking impulse purchase. That one moment of madness is all it takes for Tracy's humdrum world to be turned upside down, the tedium of everyday life replaced by fear and danger at every turn.

Witnesses to Tracy's outrageous exchange in the Merrion Centre in Leeds are Tilly, an elderly actress teetering on the brink of her own disaster, and Jackson Brodie who has returned to his home county in search of someone else's roots.

All three characters learn that the past is never history and that no good deed goes unpunished..

Loved it....as I knew I would! Loved the characters, Jackson (of course!), Tracy & in particular little Courtney (surprising how well I could visualise this little' un, she doesn't say much but the stash of goodies in her backpack & her star-making fingers somehow really bring her to life!) And the fact that it's set in my neck of the woods added to my enjoyment :o)

One aspect of the story wasn't answered - Courtney's parentage - but I'm hoping that means there's another tale in the offing, fingers crossed....
