Book Description

Publication Date: Jun 2005
Donna Brunos worships her husband and is devastated when he is jailed for armed robbery. Georgio swears he’s been set up and persuades Donna to help him escape.

Implementing ‘the jump’ takes Donna into a twilight world she never believed existed - a world of brutal sex and casual violence. Finally, she is confronted by a series of shattering revelations that threaten not only everything she believes in but also, ultimately, her own life...

Review

'Cole is brilliant at portraying the good among the bad, and vice versa, so until the very end we never quite know who to trust. This is the very stuff that makes her so compelling' -- Daily Mirror 'Right from the start [Cole] has enjoyed unqualified approval for her distinctive and powerfully written fiction' -- The Times 'Intensely readable' -- Guardian 'Martina Cole explores the shady criminal underworld, a setting she is fast making her own' -- Sunday Express 'Utterly compelling' -- Mirror 'The story will grip you from the first pages' -- Best 'Gritty novel from an author who knows intimately the world she writes about' -- Express --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thriller that thrills! 11 May 2004
By Lisa Henshaw VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
I don't usually read crime novels, I am a historical fiction fan, but someone at work lent me this book. I was hooked from the first few pages. Donna's husband is arrested and imprisoned and she has absolutely no idea of what he was involved in and to what extent. He asks her to arrange his escape and through meeting a lot of dodgy characters (including her in-laws) she finally realises how her husband had been keeping her in so much luxury, and it is a shock to her. Donna's character develops as the story goes on and she becomes stronger and stronger until you are cheering her on in the final pages.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would be interested to read another of the author's novels.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best so far... 3 May 2001
By A Customer
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Having read most of martina cole's books now this has to be the best by far, not taking anything at all away from the others, but the way she manages to get you inside the characters mind is unbelievable, you almost feel as if you are with the characters all the way.

Just ordered the video for this, having not seen the television serialisation previously, hope its as good as the book.

Can't wait till October for the new one to be released.

Keep up the good work Martina....

By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Well what can i say, this book was great, i have read all off Martina's book's but i alway's say this is the best. She proved amoung all that women are strong without a doubt. I so can't wait for 'Faceless' itching to get stuck in.
