He took his dark secrets and lies to his grave…
Fiona keeps herself to herself – it is safer that way. She allows few people to get close, having learned the hard way that most have their own agendas.
Lowering her barriers and trusting her husband Rob, is a decision she has reason to regret. His indiscretions were coming to light even before the news of his hit and run killing one summer afternoon.
In the aftermath, blame and hostility is shown to her by many. The relationship with her mother is unravelling and she has shut herself away from any friends she once had. Who can she turn to? Who will believe her? Other than her son Jack and her father, there is nobody she can count on.
Can Fiona stay away from her oldest and most faithful friend, the bottle? Or is her life as over as her husband’s?
Only the truth of Rob’s untimely death can decide that.
Review:
Hit and Run by Maria Frankland was a quick read for me because it grabbed my attention from the get go. I love the twists and turns that had me thinking things were one way, when they were another.
This is my first read by this author and won’t be my last. I really enjoyed the writing. It was paced well, and intriguing. It kept me entertained and captivated from beginning to end.
The characters were well written. The emotional rollercoaster was well done. I think these characters felt real, and that was part of the excellence of this novel. Don’t miss it.
Thank you to Random Things Tours for the opportunity to be on this blog tour. I received a free book to review honestly. All opinions are my own and unbiased.

Maria Frankland‘s life began at 40 when she escaped an unhappy marriage and began making a living from her own writing and becoming a teacher of creative writing.
The rich tapestry of life with all its turbulent times has enabled her to pour experience, angst and lessons learned into the writing of her novels and poetry.
She recognises that the darkest places can exist within family relationships and this is reflected in the domestic thrillers she writes.
She is a ‘born ‘n’ bred’ Yorkshirewoman, a mother of two and has recently found her own ‘happy ever after’ after marrying again.
Still in her forties, she is now going to dedicate the rest of her working life to writing books and inspiring other writers to also achieve their dreams too!
