Book Description

Dec 13 2011
The powerfully addictive new novel from the No. 1 bestseller

Gabby looked at the woman she had hated nearly all her life. Then she sat down on the ladder-backed chair, put her face into her bloodied hands and cried.

To the outside world, Cynthia Tailor is a woman to envy; she has a devoted husband, a lovely home and two gorgeous children. But Cynthia is deeply unhappy with her lot; she has always craved the best things in life, and is determined to see that she gets them.

About the Author

Martina Cole is the No. 1 bestselling author of seventeen hugely successful novels. Her most recent novel, THE FAMILY, went straight to No. 1 on the Sunday Times hardback bestseller list and was the No. 1 bestselling hardback adult fiction title of 2010. THE TAKE, which won the British Book Award for Crime Thriller of the Year in 2006, was adapted for Sky One. THE RUNAWAY has also followed. Two of her novels have been adapted for stage, TWO WOMEN and THE GRAFT, which were both highly acclaimed when performed at the Theatre Royal Stratford East.

Martina Cole is a phenomenon. Her hard-hitting, uncompromising and haunting writing makes for an incredible read, and sales of her books now stand at over ten million copies. She is the person who dares to tell it like it really is.

3.0 out of 5 stars One of the faithless! Oct 23 2011
By William T. Jackson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
I decided to buy the hardcover version of this rather than the Kindle one as I'm not quite sure how the high Kindle price can be justified? Surely the whole idea of ebooks is that they cost less whilst being environmentally friendly? Anyway, I'm glad I did buy the hardcover as I would have felt even more cheated if I'd paid for the stupidly priced kindle version.

The writing itself is as good as ever, but the author's tendency to over-describe situations and characters definitely slows down the pace. There is far too much character development and not enough substance to the plot, which really let me down at the end. The characters themselves are believable, but a little bit boring in that they are a re-makes of earlier models and too predictable. THE FAITHLESS seemed to start pretty well and I was carried along by the first few chapters and then it just fizzled out. I forced myself to read to the end hoping that there would be some kind of twist or change in direction to catch me out and restore my faith in Martina Cole, unfortunately it didn't happen.

I guess I could now be considered as one of the faithless as I won't be buying another book from this author unless it receives absolutely amazing reviews!

5.0 out of 5 stars Shocking & Excellent Story, Climax Was Fantastic! Oct 20 2011
By D. Williamson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Downloaded "Faithless" immediately and I read it in a single day! This book passed with flying colors on holding my interest for hours on end and I can say that I have never been disappointed in a Martina Cole novel to date. I find they are undeniably the most insane tales of corruption, hatred, and greed; and at the same time there is a story of some poor soul who gets used and abused to the limit. Cynthia Taylor feels she has been given a raw deal in life and goes to any length to get what she wants; and of the evil she perpetrates in order to meet that end. She basically uses her beautiful children, grandchildren, parents and any man who comes in her space.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not What I Expected From Martina Nov 4 2011
By patsy - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Martina why oh why did you leave such a gaping hole in the story of Celeste - what happened to all of the money her husband left behind???? I am just shocked that a writer of your calibre could leave something so important unfinished like this - however - I only rated this book with one star - you can do better than this - From Pat Wells - Richards Bay - South Africa
