Thanks so much to NetGalley, St Martins Press, and TM Logan for the opportunity to read this great book! 4.5 stars! I really enjoyed the cat-and-mouse game, made all the more prevalent with today's social media thrown into the mix.
Joe and Melanie (Mel) are happily married with a small son, William. Joe is a teacher and does the lion's share of work raising William, while Mel has the more high-powered job. Joe is taking William home from school one day when William spots "Mommy's car" and wants to follow her. They find her at a hotel and when Joe briefly leaves William in the car to investigate, finds Mel and a family friend, Ben, arguing in the lobby. Mel slips away and when Joe confronts Ben in the parking lot, a fight ensues, leaving Ben on the ground, bleeding and unconscious - or worse? Just then, William has an asthma attack and Joe makes the decision to rush home for his inhaler. When he returns to the scene of the crime, as they say, Ben is gone. And so it begins.
In typical psychological thriller fashion, you will question everyone in this book to see where all the lies come into play. A good read - and scary social media thoughts too!
