Journal Entry 1 by Plum-crazy from Brighouse, West Yorkshire United Kingdom on Tuesday, August 4, 2015
It's been two months since private investigator Cal Weaver's teenage son Scott died in a tragic accident. Ever since, he and his wife have drifted apart, fracturing a once normal life. Cal is mired in grief, a grief he can't move past. And maybe his grief has clouded his judgment. Because driving home one night, he makes his first big mistake.
A girl drenched in rain taps on his car window and asks for a ride as he sits at a stoplight. Even though he knows a fortysomething man picking up a teenage hitchhiker is a fool, he lets her in. She's the same age as Scott, and maybe she can help Cal find the dealer who sold his son the drugs that killed him. After a brief stop at a roadside diner, Cal senses that something's not right with the girl or the situation. But it's too late. He's already involved.
Now Cal is drawn into a nightmare of pain and suspicion. Something is horribly wrong in the small town of Griffon in upstate New York. There are too many secrets there, too many lies and cover-ups. And Cal has decided to expose those secrets one by one.
That's his second big mistake.

Journal Entry 2 by Plum-crazy at Brighouse, West Yorkshire United Kingdom on Wednesday, September 21, 2016
This thriller was a very easy read & yet it still managed to be gripping, action packed & credible. The characters were good & believable enough & the plot certainly has a lot going on - there's plenty of twists & turns, so that despite the limited number of people, it keeps you guessing as to everyone's motives, & to what's going on why. Perfect holiday reading :o)
