He thinks he’s safe up there.
But he’ll never be safe from you.

What happens when you see a man who should be dead. You thought he was dead. He must be dead because YOU killed him?

This is what Ellen experiences. How could Kieran still be alive? She is angry. Ellen is very, very, angry. Kieran has changed everything in her family’s life. She first met him when he was a sullen teen her son brought home. That was the beginning of the end. Tragedy strikes and there is a price to be paid. Kieran pays it, but that is not enough!

This book is told using multiple POV’s. This adds some meat and detail to the story. This was another solid read by Candlish but not my favorite by her. I am not a slow burn fan, and I wanted this book to hurry up at times. But there is a nice payoff at the end with the reveal. That was a nice touch and one I didn’t see coming. Very nice touch, Candlish, very nice.

Thank you to Atria Books and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
