Description

'Do You Know This Girl?'

Harmony's teenage craving for drama is answered when a body is discovered by her aunt Mel on Evensand beach. But the naked, lifeless young woman turns out - problematically - to be alive. Unable to speak or remember where she came from, the woman is named Storm by her nurses.

Surrounded by doctors, psychiatrists and policemen, Storm remains provocatively silent. Harmony is desperate to fill in the gaps in Storm's story, while the responsibility Mel feels for the woman she rescued begins to skew the course of her own settled life. Their efforts to solve the mystery clash with the efforts of rookie constable Mason, assigned to the case and determined to help this damsel he feels to be very much in distress.

Will any of them be able to find out who Storm really is? And what if the distress belongs to everyone but her?

Everything You Do Is Wrong is a compelling exploration of how this enigma sets a family's good and bad intentions crashing into each other, with unforgettable consequences.

Reviews
I hugely enjoyed Everything You Do is Wrong - it's so vivid and so readable, like unpacking a magician's box to reveal secret after secret -- Lissa Evans, author of Crooked Heart
With secrets and mix-ups vying for position, the mood of this strongly characterised, bleak tale reminded me of Broadchurch -- Fanny Blake * Woman & Home *
Amanda Coe writes with inventiveness and a vivid sense of place - those great skies and pounding waves in Everything You Do Is Wrong will look great on TV -- Kate Saunders * The Times *
Amanda Coe is brilliant at writing young girls . . . a shrewd and endlessly entertaining new novel -- Lucy Scholes * Financial Times *

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
