Did Jen really kill Kelly and can she ever right the wrongs of the past?




My Review


Admittedly I more or less stalked Lisa Sell on twitter to get on this blog tour for her new novel as i was so taken with the blurb i had seen on Twitter! :)


Jen our main character is training councillor but carries the real burden of her own secrets from her youth, when suddenly her past comes back to haunt her,


Jen is determined to make sure her secrets do not come out!


The story flits back and forward in time, each chapter alternates taking us back to when Jen was a teen and the next forward to the present and what is happening in Jen's life now. I loved how this made the novel flow and really ebbed up the tension.


Of course the main focus of this tale is the death of Kelly and how Jen was involved along with the guilt and emotions around this.


As always this a no spoiler review but I loved This book, Jen's character felt so real and the feelings she had around the death were so emotional and the ending was nothing short of fantastic, I just did not see it coming!
