It’s the end of the night. You’re walking home on your own.
Then you hear the sound every woman dreads. Footsteps. Behind you. Getting faster.
You’re sure it’s him – the man from the bar who wouldn’t leave you alone.
You make a snap decision. You turn. You push. Your pursuer tumbles down the steps. He lies motionless, face-down on the floor.
Now what?
Call 999
Wait for the police to arrive. For judgement, for justice, whatever that may be. You just hope your husband, family and friends, everyone you love, will stand by you.
OR:
Run
Stay silent. You didn’t mean to do it. You were scared, you panicked. And no one saw. No one will ever know. If you leave now. If you keep quiet. For ever.
Which will it be?

For the first half of the book I was totally enthralled, following along through the alternative storylines but eventually toward the last third, I found myself plodding through and no longer engaged. The parts after she's out of prison with her friends and how things have changed seemed to go on too long, but I did find the relationship between Joanna and Reuben to be fascinatingly complex in both Cover and Reveal story lines. They were each very unique and contrasting personalities and I wound up thinking this was as much a love story as a crime novel.
