When Piper Boone’s 3-year-old daughter Dove is drowned Piper’s world stops turning.
Fifteen years later Piper is caught up in a shooting tragedy which would’ve cost her life if not for the heroic actions of Tucker Landry. It soon becomes clear that Piper was the intended target, and when her neighbour also goes missing it’s just the start of the road to find out the truth. Or truths. What has happened to her neighbour? What really happened to Dove? Is Tucker who he seems? And is one or more of Piper’s narcissistic family really a killer?
This is a superb book for anyone who likes a gripping thriller. The characters are brilliantly written, including the entire cast of Piper’s generally unlikeable family, and the story has plenty of twists and turns. I guessed a key element very early on – maybe I’ve read too many suspense novels – but it didn’t in any way diminish the story. This is a book quite light on the faith input, although it’s clearly there. I will definitely be looking out for other books by this author.
FBI-certified forensic artist Carrie Stuart Parks combines her knowledge of art and forensics in this case of family secrets and deception.
