CURRENTLY READING... PLAYING THE CARDS - COURTESY OF SWWJ MEMBER CECILIA PYKE

CECILIA'S LATEST BOOK - PLAYING THE CARDS - RELEASED 2021

To some onlookers, a happy family may seem lovingly close. We think we know all about them; but what is hidden below that exterior? It’s believed that every family conceals a secret. The catalyst for the unburdening of such secrets often lies just beneath that delicate marital surface. Beautiful, young Janey and husband Craig have everything; they’re regarded as the perfect pair; childhood sweethearts, married four years ago and now proud parents of toddler Ben.

This gripping  novel is unusual - set around the millennium. Workaholic Craig’s high-powered position in a top City insurance company often takes him around Europe. This means that he can’t spend as much time with his family as Janey wishes, although she is materially compensated by her beautiful, spacious countryside home and unlimited credit cards.
