Summary

OUR MOST NOTORIOUS CRIMINALS HAVE HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT.
UNTIL NOW...

'Emily' is a devoted single mother.

'Jack' starts a new job in a new town.

They both share the same secret:
neither of them are who they say they are.

They are among only nine criminals in the UK who have been granted lifelong anonymity, for their own safety, because of their terrible crimes.

But what if someone exposed their true identities to the families of their victims, who are desperate for revenge?

Probation officer Olivia Campbell is caught in the crossfire of this crisis - and as the search for the mole behind it all intensifies, so too does the hunt for the vigilante killers let loose by the leaks...

RIGHT OR WRONG?
CRIMINAL OR VICTIM?
REDEMPTION OR REVENGE?

This novel is based around young offenders, having committed heinous crimes, getting a second chance back in society with anonymity. It raises questions about whether these young offenders are able to be rehabilitated. We see families who’s loved ones were the victims, being given the true identities of these offenders. What will they do with this information? And is vigilantism ever the right thing to do?
There were a lot of characters introduced quickly which took some concentration. But the short chapters kept the story going at a fast pace & it was a page turner. Kept me gripped & wanting to know more. I don’t like the idea of such serious offenders being able to attempt a new life but also don’t agree with vigilantism. It does start a difficult conversation. How do we deal with these children who commit these crimes? And are we handling it the right way? Really glad I listened to this book. These narrator was brilliant!
