I'm preparing a book report about the book "Until it's over" by Nicci French. I chose this book because I think it's a very exciting book. The first chapter wasn't so easy to understand but the rest was fine.The main actor in the book is Astrid Bell. She is a young and athletic cycling courier in London and she shares a big house with six housemates. But Astrid is bad luck for other people. Her neighbour Peggy Farrell, who knocked her off her bike, was found between the dustbins a few days later. Dead.
Some days later Astrid is asked to pick up a package from a woman Ingrid de Soto - and found her dead in the hall.
Of course the police is suspecting Astrid, especially when the girlfriend of her ex-lover and housemate is found dead.
In the end Astrid's ex-lover Miles is arrested.
You may think the story is over now and the book has finished ... oh you are the way off!!! :]
The author "Nicci French" isn't one person. It is a composition of the two famous jounalists Nicci Gerrard und Sean French. They both live in London.
