Well that was sad….
Ava only left her daughter alone for a couple of minutes. Abi was in her pushcart, safely secured, what could go wrong? Every parents’ worse nightmare. When Ava comes downstairs, the pushcart is empty, the front door is open, and Abi is gone. She is left with heartache, guilt, despair and loss.
A year later, Ava and Matt attend a housewarming, Matt wants to attend believing it will help Ava to get her out socializing, to be around friends and neighbors. But little do they know that a single comment, will change things….
Secrets, lie, guilt, pain, heartbreaking loss, and the truth….
This book had a couple of twists at the end which I did not see coming. This book is not the usual fast paced thriller. It is slowed down so that you feel the devastating pain, loss and guilt that Ava is feeling. We get to see what happened in the past and the present. We also get to read the POV of Ava and other characters. As the story begins to unfold, the book does pick up and move faster.
