Book Description
Appearances can be deceptive…

Arnold Eastwood is thrilled when social services allocate him a flat all of his own. Independence hasn’t come easily to a young man with Downs Syndrome but now he has the chance to live free from his mum’s nagging, find a girlfriend, watch endless movies and make new friends.
Meanwhile a London drug gang is setting up a supply line in Arnold’s town. They’re looking for someone to deliver drugs for them and somewhere to set up a base of operations.
Soon Arnold and his flat are in the drug gang’s sights. Drawn into the dark underworld of crack cocaine and modern slavery, Arnold soon discovers that friends can in fact be deadly enemies.
The question is: can he break free?

My Review
5☆ Wow! A Gritty, Absorbing, Hard Hitting Gang-Lit Thriller.... Unputdownable!
Who's There Is a gritty, hard hitting and times poignant gang lit thriller that left me on the edge of my seat!
Definitely going on my Top Reads for 2019!
Arnold has downs syndrome and is desperate for some independence.
So when his Social Worker Sue finds him a flat on a rather unsavoury area, his Mum is beside herself with worry.
But Arnold is over the moon and chomping at the bits to move in.
It's not long before Arnold's trusting nature and his vulnerability gets taken advantage of, when a very Dangerous Drug Dealer moves in on the area and preys on his naivety and generosity.
No matter how hard Arnold's Sister tries to get him away, Arnold is determined more than ever not to give up his beloved flat!
But to what cost!
Wow oh wow did I enjoy every minute of this book.
Arnold is such a special and courageous character, it breaks my heart how people prey on vulnerable people for their own gains.
The Characters are superbly written and believable, every one gives you the right feels, some I detested aka pirate and spider and others I loved, Arnold, his Sister even Saskia had redeemable qualities.
What I did really enjoy was how Swan not only has written a bloomin great Gang-Lit Thriller she has also explored Disability, Sibling Rivalry ( and by this I mean we get to see how envious Lottie is of her brother, and how she deals with Arnold's Dissbility),
She has also written about Cancer (which if your like me, this is a trigger point for me so I found this particular difficult to read)
Who's There is a fantastic read, it's Gritty, Arbsorbsing, Hard Hitting, Pacy, Believable, Poignant and very very Gripping!
The Cover spooked me out, but it's absolutely perfect for the story!
I was hooked from beginning to end and I didn't want to put it down!
There really isn't anything else left for me to say except.... Pick Up A Copy Of ...Who's There by Keren Swan..... You Won't be Disappointed!!
