This story is based around two siblings, Peter and Adele . They are being brought up in a very violent household where domestic abuse is an almost daily occurrence and this impacts their lives greatly , mentally and physically . This book was hard to put down for the simple reason that I had to find out if they were ever going to survive to get out of there and make something of themselves. My favorite characters changed throughout the duration of reading this and my heart went out to some other characters , it was a gut wrenching read . This is a read in one day type of book .
I received this book for review from the lovely people over at Aria Publishing .
This book is available from all good bookstores .

About the book
Brother and sister Peter and Adele Robinson never stood a chance. Dragged up by an alcoholic, violent father, and a weak, beaten mother, their childhood in Manchester only prepared them for a life of crime and struggle. But Adele is determined to break the mould. She studies hard at school and, inspired by her beloved grandmother Joyce, she finally makes a successful life for herself on her own.
Peter is not so lucky. Getting more and more immersed in the murky world of crime and gangs, his close bonds with Adele gradually loosen until they look set to break altogether.
But old habits die hard, and one devastating night, Adele is forced to confront her violent past. Dragged back into her worst nightmares, there's only one person she can turn to when her life is on the line – her brother Peter. After all, blood is thicker than water...
