There are just a couple of lines that gave me pause for thought. For instance, a teacher telling Kiri that her 'A' level exams are her ''final exams for life'' may be a good scare tactic to focus on the exams' importance, but these days no one is guaranteed clear of exams at 18. However, any whinges are minor and totally expunged by the compelling nature of Kiri's personality and voice. This is indeed a ''slow-burning thriller'' as advertised and, while we wait for the thriller element to kick in, there's much to keep us occupied. So much, in fact, Scott's sequel ''Train that Carried the Girl'' has definitely made it onto my reading list.
