The dangers of social media are also at the forefront and there were some really shocking twists in the book but maybe a little over the top towards the end. The pacing was spot on and kept me turning the pages as fast as I could, and the final twist lived up to Kia Abdullah’s trademark.

It also provides insight into the hurt racism can cause and feelings of isolation that is felt by victims of abuse, whilst at the same time showing us how easy it is to use a label like 'racism' for someone's actions when that's not the driver at all. On top of that, both families had pet dogs, and I loathed the way they were used as pawns to exert revenge. Central to this not so neighbourly story is racism which is initially fuelled by the power of social media.

The book showcased political commentary and the abduction of an elderly family dog and I do not enjoy fiction books with political overtones and/or animal cruelty.
