Holy moly! This book was seriously intense and I loved every second of it! A retired detective, whose husband left her and her son and never turned back, decided to make a move to a small town and start over. Her 13yo son has always had a stutter and was constantly picked on.
One day he doesn’t come home from school and the local police think ah it’s normal for kids that age to stay out late and will be back soon.

She knows her son and doesn’t believe it and knows something bad happened to her son. With her background she used her skills as a detective to take it upon herself to find out what happened to her son.

As a mom, this is a worst case scenario situation for me and this book had my heart thumping at every turn of the page.

What happened to her son will surprise you and this books reiterates the need as a parent to always trust your gut when it involves your kids.

This is a mystery you don’t want to miss. Thank you @crookedlanebooks for my gifted copy.
