A good, but not great, thriller that was hurt by gratuitous language that seems to have been added for its future screenplay. The story was fast-paced, but the characters just didn’t “click” for me.

This book definitely kept me engaged throughout. The pace is fast and intriguing. I found myself cringing at much of the crass dialogue. Was this integral to the story and/or the protagonists? I thought the book could have been just as interesting and fast moving with less base language. Thank you NetGalley and Oceanview Publishing for this opportunity.

This was such an amazing read and a page turner, I couldn't stop reading because I just wanted to know what happened. The story is about Susan a woman who's daughter was raped and murdered, so a huge trigger warning for those. The execution of the murderer is coming up and she's planning on attending to get some peace. But during her trip, several things happen which makes her doubt if the convicted man really killed her daughter or if it was maybe her now ex husband..

I love love Susan and she's such a strong and amazing woman. It all felt very real and I just could imagine her feelings through and through. The book took turns and there were points I didn't even know who did what anymore. I started to think everyone could have done it and that's when I know a book got to me. A fantastic read and I'll definitely keep an eye out for what the author releases next.

What a great story about a mother’s resilience. Susan is leaving to go to North Dakota, to see the execution of the man that murdered her daughter Amy, 20 years ago. As soon as she sets off to drive from NY to North Dakota her car breaks down forcing her to find some other way to get to North Dakota. She takes the bus and manages to stop in the town her now ex husband lives in and let him know where she is going, while there she starts to have memories that she thought long ago buried and questions what’s real and what isn’t. With alternating time lines and a full cast of memorable characters and an ending that breaks your heart you will not want this one to end. Can’t wait to see what Matt writes next!

Wow!! Get ready for this book!! It was intense, thought provoking, and then some.
Although it has some heavy themes, it was really well written and it made me feel for the main character of this book. It was a great weekend read!!

I thought this was an amazing book and read it in less than 2 days! Kept me interested and on my toes until the end. Would definitely recommend.
