WOMAN ON THE EDGE BY SAMANTHA M. BAILEY 

Published by Headline 

SHE GAVE YOU HER BABY AND THEN SHE JUMPED.



A moment on the platform changes two lives forever. But nothing is as it seems…

‘Take my baby.’

In a split second, Morgan’s life changes forever. A stranger hands her a baby, then jumps in front of a train.

Morgan has never seen the woman before and she can’t understand what would cause a person to give away her child and take her own life.

When the police question Morgan, she discovers none of the witnesses can corroborate her version of events. And when they learn Morgan longs for a baby of her own, she becomes a suspect.

To prove her innocence, Morgan frantically tries to retrace the last days of the woman’s life. She begins to understand that Nicole Markham believed she and her baby were in danger. Now Morgan might be in danger, too.

Was Nicole a new mother struggling with paranoia?

Or was something much darker going on?

MY REVIEW 

Everyone is going to be talking about this novel as the hype of The Woman On The Edge is real, there are no ifs or buts it’s the book everyone wants to reads. 

Morgan is a social worker who recognises the signs of stress. But she didn’t notice anything wrong with her husband, who she found dead. 

Then with Morgan on the way to work standing on the platform a woman with a baby says her name Morgan I’ve been watching you, please take my baby, don’t let anyone hurt he. Love her for me, then the woman dumped her baby into Morgan’s arms. Without warning the woman jumped off the platform edge. 

How did this woman know Morgan’s name? And why was she watching Morgan for a long time? 

The sad part is when police take Morgan in for questioning, witnesses say Morgan took the woman’s baby off her. Here must be a classic example of what passengers see and what really happened.

The tension throughout is fast and real.

I myself have to congratulate Samantha M Bailey on an absolute superbly story that has everything I search for in a story full of twists leading the way. 

I simply have to express Woman on the Edge is a must read.
