I am hugely relieved to find that I am not the only one who is massively disappointed with The Business by Martina Cole. What on earth has happened to her writing? The worst aspect of the writing is the endless repetition; page after page after page, offering the same description, paraphrased in d ...

Martina Cole has written some of the best fiction I have read, but, unfortunately, "The Business" is an absolute horrible read.

Cole's first books were great but The Business has no real plot. Nothing to get your teeth into :-(. If you like repetition then you are going to love this book. The only point in its favour is that it is very easy to put down.

The Business was boring, no storyline at all, what is Martina Cole doing? at one time she was very good and i could not wait till her new book, but the last two books have been a let down.
