Bad Influence cover

In a cosy Cotswolds village, retired jewel thief and WW2 child internee Jennifer 'Jinx' Sullivan prefers her own company to that of her sociable neighbours. However, a shock diagnosis forces Jinx to enlist the help of sullen local teenager Thea, to right a wrong before it's too late. Together the two women join the village coach trip to Italy, and an unexpected friendship begins to grow as Jinx reckons with her painful past and Thea wrestles with an uncertain future.

Full of tenderness and warmth, Jinx is a gorgeously poignant mystery showing that it is never too late to forgive - or to love.

Bad Influence is another entertaining, intriguing and sometimes poignant adventure peopled by unforgettable characters whose lives we see over the course of many decades. The moral of this novel is, never make the mistake of underestimating a pensioner! * Jill Mansell *
