Holly’s husband is killed in a hit and run accident and she’s being paid to keep information about the accident a secret. However, is it much of a secret when several people know about it?
The story is told from multiple perspectives and goes back and forth in time, primarily the present and three months prior, although there are some additional time changes. It’s not hard to follow once you get into it but took me a half a second when I started.
Overall I thought it was a decent book. It’s definitely an interesting concept although nothing surprised me so I wasn’t shocked or surprised.
