A tear inducing read that keeps you totally involved from beginning to end. Each character is so well written that they come to life as you read.

I loved this book and couldn't put it down. The story is gripping and believable, and it is a measure of the author's skill that a very painful subject becomes such an enjoyable read. The characters are very well written, and I can't wait to read more books from this author. Highly recommended.

This is a gripping book. A group of friends, a perfectly normal Saturday evening. Until it wasn’t. Tragedy in the form of a car crash splinters them and the ripples spread outwards as we try to understand what happened.

I have a young teenager and the descriptions of parents waiting for news were upsettingly realistic. The whole book was well written- you could ask yourself what you’d have done at many points.

The author manages to make all of the characters likeable and well rounded. It’s difficult when there’s an obvious person at fault not to make them unlikeable in their behaviour. Our criminal, Harry is an average teenager who behaves exactly as I’d imagined he would.

I very much enjoyed this and will look for future works by this author. Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for my copy of this book.
