July Weaver vows to never return home. Her father is a convicted serial killer, making her family the town outcasts. But, nine years after she left, she comes back home after her youngest brother attempts suicide. The longer she is in town, the more she doubts the events of the summer her sister died and her father was arrested. She was the key witness in her father's trial, but she is starting to think that more was happening that summer than she knew.
I read this one pretty much straight through. I both hated and felt sorry for July's parents. I definitely felt sorry for the six kids, who basically had to raise each other on their own. It was a mystery, but also had a complex family dynamic (how could you not with a family of eight!) While I did have the mystery figured out pretty early on, I devoured the rest of the book, hoping I was wrong.
This is a debut author and I will keep my eyes out for future books from her.
Andi Arndt narrates the audiobook. She is one of my favorite narrators, and it was wonderful, as always.
I received an audio copy in exchange for an honest review.
