This is the first novel I've read by B P Walter and it was a mixed experience for me. It started off well and it was gripping enough to hold my attention to the end. My issue is that I feel the author tried to fit too many issues into the novel and I ended up feeling quite overwhelmed. The author covers terrorism, grief and loss, sexual abuse, self harm and family estrangement and for me it wasn't a particularly comfortable read.
Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review this digital ARC.

#TheWomanOnThePier #NetGalley
A good novel.
Two strangers meet on the pierOnly one walks away…
Screenwriter Caroline Byrne is desperate to know why her daughter Jessica died, murdered in Stratford when she was supposed to be at a friend’s in Somerset.
When Caroline discovers the messages Jessica had been sending a boy named Michael, she realises it’s because of him. Because he failed to meet her that day.
He’s the reason why her daughter is dead. And so she makes a choice. He’s the one who’s going to pay.
I'm a huge fan of this author and this book is a good read. Go for it.
Thanks to NetGalley and One More Chapter for giving me an advance copy.
