Synopsis:
An ICU nurse accidentally uncovers a patient’s frightening past in this chilling thriller.
Meghan Michaels is trying to find balance between being a single mom to a teenage daughter and working as a full time nurse. While on duty at the hospital one day, a patient named Caitlin arrives in a coma with a traumatic brain injury, having jumped from a bridge and plunging over twenty feet to the train tracks below.
But when a witness comes forward with shocking details about the fall, it calls everything they know into question. Was Caitlin pushed and if so, by whom and why?
Meghan has always tried to stay emotionally detached from her patients, but this time, she mistakenly lets herself get too close until she’s deeply entangled in Caitlin’s and her family’s lives. Only when it’s too late, does she realize that she and her daughter could be the next victims.
Review:
Every time I review one of the authors books I find it hard to review because even discussing the plot a little could give something away and I never want to do that. So I say go into this knowing as little as possible, trust that the author is excellent at what she does and just enjoy the ride because it was a really fun one. I will say that this is a slow burn but it was somehow still a binge worthy and pretty fast read. There’s a couple of different mystery threads running throughout and I was really impressed by the way the author pulled everything together. The city setting with some awful things happening to women made for some very uneasy reading and added an additional creep factor to the story. Add in some good twists with a super solid one that made me do a double take and this was a really well executed thriller that I throughly enjoyed.
Overall rating: 4/5
Thanks to the publisher for my review copy.
