Summary Short:
Samantha Holland, makeup salesgirl is a suspect in the death of the stepson of the man she is having an affair with.
My Review:
The book starts out with the stepson creating havoc and then quickly losing his life, hit by a car. The following underlying quest, for Samantha, is to figure out whether it was she who hit the son.
Samantha suffers from a mental disorder, one she is not sure of. Is she bipolar or schizophrenic? Thoughts about this are constantly running through her mind, along with the self-awareness of memory loss. I followed Samantha (at a fast pace) as she was on a continual move towards finding out the truth while trying to hide her involvement if it did happen to be her fault. Her affair with the politician and the jealousy of his wife combined with using a man who is in love with her ping-ponged the reader back and forth on whether Samantha is a mean girl or just vulnerable due to her medical and family history.
I was rooting for the main character the whole story, which lead me to finish this book quickly. The author kept me interested with never letting the action die down for long and upping the ante with some bizarre events. Even though the actions/words of the detective and sheriff seemed silly at times, I liked the twists in the story. All in all, a great read.
