Sounds intense and has a great cover.
My WOW

I love that cover and title, but doesn't really sound like a book I'd enjoy. hope you do, though!
I love it when an author takes actual events and weave them into their story. This sounds like it could be good.
The cover looks so sparse and scary. Whew!
That sounds like a pretty emotional read. Hope you enjoy it!
Oh boy Katrina. Sounds like it will be a tear jerker for sure. Thanks for sharing.
I have no idea how you manage to find books that I've never ever heard about :)
Please stop by my WOW
I bet that's a book that can make you cry a river. Nice choice. (:

I always like books that feature memory issues as part of the storyline. And there are a lot of them out there right now. I'll be looking for this one.
Nice Choice. Everyone remembers Katina so a good setting for a story.

I've read both of Paddock's previous books and love her writing. I think she wrote about these three characters in her first book. I'm excited to reconnect with them. Thanks for highlighting the book. Now it's on my radar.
This one sounds fabulous! The title is captivating. I just added it to my list.
