I liked the evocative descriptions of the British seaside, both in the 1980s and today. I didn't like the apparent lack of editing - the lumpy pacing, the continuity errors, the inconsistent characters, the obvious baddie, the wrongly attributed chapters, the sentences that made no sense. And it all got a bit silly at the end. The author needs to ask her publisher to work harder for her.
