Many thanks to NetGalley, Berkley, and Simon Lelic for the opportunity to read his latest thriller - tough to put this one down! 4.5 stars!
The book opens with someone being held captive - but who? That's not the only secret here - Susannah has reinvented herself, moved away from her past life, changed her name, and is now a counselor and single mom to Emily, who knows none of Susannah's secrets. Emily, 14 years old, is keeping secrets of her own, including a budding romance with an older boy, Adam. All these secret worlds come together when Adam appears in Susannah's office with a picture of Emily and a story to tell.
Most of this book is set in Susannah's counseling office, with background from Emily intermixed. This is a brilliant way to tell this story - you will be glued to your seat to find out all the answers!
