The Lost Children by Theresa Talbot

4*

I quite enjoyed this book, well written and evenly paced, I read it in a couple of days.
It followed a female journalist called Oonagh as she tried to uncover an old scandal regarding the church and child trafficking, but found more than she bargained for.
Oonagh is a good character, full of life and wisecracks and I quite liked Father Tom too even though he was a bit useless at times, his heart was in the right place.
The premise is truly horrific and sad to think that things like this did used to go on but the plot is sensitively handled and hopeful.
I will read more by this author.
