A fantastically written courtroom drama. I was kept guessing the whole time and only guessed the truth minutes from it being revealed. A very clever story. I look forward to reading more from the author in the future.

I was actually disappointed with this one.
I loved her first novel: Anything you do say, so when I read the blurb for this one, I had really high expectations. Unfortunately, it did not live up to that.

Martha seemed almost unbelievable as a character, not natural at all. I saw the plottwist coming from miles away and I felt that it was not resolved neatly.

I absolutely loved Gillian's first 2 books so when she put out an IG post saying it cpuld be requested from Netgalley, I dived straight on there!! And I got a copy!! 😁

Two sisters on opposite sides of the courtroom....one whose baby has died and one accused of murdering their niece. The police are convinced she's guilty, she says she's innocent....who do you believe?
.
I LOVED this book ❤ I couldn't put it down and read it in about 5 hours...it was that good!! It was incredibly well told, the storyline was intense and gripping and the relationships between the sisters and the rest of the family was real. I absolutely loved the different witness perspectives and the court scenes, they were thrilling. It's a tough topic to write about, but I thought it was so well done...I was surprised at the ending, but it all came together really well and I will definitely be adding this to my collection in paperback when it comes out!
I couldn't ever imagine being in a place where I had to decide something like guilt about my sister....whom I adore....so it was heartbreaking to read 😔 but so so brilliant ❤❤

Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for this arc in exchange for my honest review.

Martha and Becky are sisters who are so different but so alike. Martha runs a charity and is mother to Layla who is eight weeks old. Without taking maternity leave she employs her sister to be her nanny. Layla is a constant crier and the unthinkable happens and Becky is on trial for the death of her niece.

Gillian has done it again, another gripping read which had me totally absorbed for two days. Absolutely love the way she tells a story with the human element of pain and emotion.

Thankyou to NetGalley, Penguin UK - Michael Joseph, and Gillian Mcallister for the opportunity to read this novel.
No Further Questions is a highly emotional courtroom drama involving two sisters. Becky, the defendant, stands accused of murdering her sister's baby. But, Becky is adamant she is innocent.
The plot was well thought out and keeps you on the edge of your seat. This is a book that will keep you on the edge of your seat until you get to the stunning conclusion.
Gillian McAllister just gets better and better.

I really enjoyed McAllister’s book Anything You Do Say and I was looking forward to her read.

No Further Questions sees a courtroom drama unfold as Becky is accused of murdering her sister Martha’s young baby Layla. The opening chapters hook you instantly with the dark storyline.

I guessed the ending quite early on but it still made for an enjoyable read - the story is teased out through different perspectives from the night in question and also the court case, and I was keen to see how the case would reach its conclusion.

3.5 stars.

Thanks to NetGalley, Penguin Michael Joseph and Gillian McAllister for my ARC in exchange for an honest review.
