Edgy and interesting - a good Gail Giles creation. Told from three points-of-view, the story eventually fully unfolds. Kyle Kirby has abducted and buried Cass McBridge alive because of her part in his younger brother's suicide. A cop, Ben Gray, puts the clues together to discover who kidnapped her and why.
I really like the way that Giles slowly puts you into the heads of the protagonists. And, as is usually the case, there are deeply rooted feelings and reasons for the way people act and think. No one really knows what happens in some families, do they? Some parents really do a number on their kids.
The story flew by, incredibly well written, and totally thought-provoking.
