I did not read this book. I was far too busy with other things and backlogged on my ARC reviews. Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC, as well as my apologies for lack of review.

This was a sad story of how tragedy can change one’s life and the coping mechanisms that might be chosen. Nick manages to overcome his substance abuse and he becomes a window washer. He sees something one day that leads to murder and corruption. Could this be related to his own tragedy?
Many thanks to Avante Press and to NetGalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

A tragic story.

Nicks wife and 8 year old son is killed in a fire. A house fire.
This has been my nightmare, I have seen a family in a house fire a few years ago with the father getting badly hurt. Its been my fear ever since.

Nick just cannot cope without his wife who he loved dearly and his son and turns to substances that periodically make him feel like he can cope [or rather, numb the pain] drugs and drink, then therapy.

His job is cleaning windows.

One day while he is window washing he sees something that is significant to his wife and sons death. This starts him off on an investigation.

There were so many characters in this book that I did find it confusing, I really had to concentrate.

The plot was good, but just too many people in the mix.

My thanks to Avante Press via Net Galley for my copy

Great mob book. I didn't expect all the twist and turns and that made it even more enjoyable. It held my attention until the very last page. Great read.

I loved the start of this book, but about a quarter of the way through it became clear that it was a thriller involving drugs and gangs, and generally not the sort of book I enjoy. I originally thought it was a who done it, or psychological thriller, so the mistake may be mine. I didn't read to the end of the book, but other people may enjoy it, it just wasn't my genre.
