"All children grow up. Except one"
Live action version of JM Barrie's famous tale of the Boy who Never Grew Up, casting Jason Isaacs in the dual role of Mr Darling/Captain Hook, which makes me wonder is Captain Hook supposed to be the sterner side of their father, as seen through children's eyes!

Anyway, it's all here: Peter Pan himself, Tinkerbell, Neverland (including some rather scary mermaids for a family film!), The Lost Boys, Smee and Captain Hook, the alarm-clock swallowing crocodile that follows the latter ...

TICK…
In the city of Stoke, a teenage girl is murdered in the middle of the day, her lifeless body abandoned in a field behind her school.
TOCK…
Two days later, a young mother is abducted. She’s discovered strangled and dumped in a local park.
TIME’S UP…
DS Grace Allendale and her team are brought in to investigate, but with a bold killer, no leads and nothing to connect the victims, the case seems hopeless. It’s only when a third woman is targeted that a sinister pattern emerges. A dangerous mind is behind these attacks, and Grace realises that the clock is ticking…
Can they catch the killer before another young woman dies?

A solid second book in the DS Grace Allendale series.
This was a tense story with the clock ticking for DS Allendale to solve who is killing apparently random victims.
Absolutely gripping from the start.
I love the plot so very well written and paced.
Lots of action with twists and turns.
I like the development of the characters.
Highly Recommend Reading... I love all Mel Sherratt novels!

Thank you to Net Galley, The Publishers and of course Mel Sherratt for my ARC. This is my own honest voluntary review.

"Houston, we have a problem"

Astronaut Jim Lovell's famous understatement, here presented by Tom Hanks, in a film that documents (I was going to say dramatises, but let's face it: it's already dramatic enough) the trials and tribulations of the Astronauts of the ill-fated Apollo 13 mission, and of the members of Houston's mission control who worked around the clock to get them home safely again following the explosion that crippled their ship.

Yes, we may all know how it ends, but this is still a very good movie with stellar performances by all involved!
