 Mysterious, thrilling and engrossing. I was unable to put the book down, I finished it in one day. 

The story follows a family, Gabe and Pippa who moves to a house close to a cliff and unknowingly the location is a prime spot for people to jump from to end their life. Gabe always goes out and talks people back from the edge, until one time it doesn't work. The police arrive to investigate and  Pippa notices that some details are not adding up from her husband's statement. Comes to find out Gabe knew the woman that fell. The truth of the woman who fell, Gabe, Pippa and the widow's husband start to unravel, and their stories are far more entangled than what it seems. 

I personally didn't know how to feel about the characters, one minute I liked them and the next I didn't, UNTIL I got to the end! I had to seriously hold back tears. I fell in love with Pippa for how she handled situations and the things she endured. The author wrapped the book up so lovely. 4.5 stars!!!
