Olivia fled her abusive marriage to return to her hometown and take over the family beekeeping business when her son Asher was six. Now, impossibly, her baby is six feet tall and in his last year of high school, a kind, good-looking, popular ice hockey star with a tiny sprite of a new girlfriend.

Lily also knows what it feels like to start over – when she and her mother relocated to New Hampshire it was all about a fresh start. She and Asher couldn’t help falling for each other, and Lily feels happy for the first time. But can she trust him completely?

Then Olivia gets a phone call – Lily is dead, and Asher is arrested on a charge of murder. As the case against him unfolds, she realises he has hidden more than he’s shared with her. And Olivia knows firsthand that the secrets we keep reflect the past we want to leave behind – and that we rarely know the people we love well as we think we do.

This is a great book told from different points of view. It centres around a murder trial and jumps between the past and present. The way each detail is revealed makes you question what you think you know and leaves you guessing as to the guilt of the main character. Also there are some great plot twists!

Prompt, pleasant, and professional. CYBER GENIE knows its stuff and is precise in recommending solutions with its internet and cyber expertise. Really refreshing to be working with such transparent and efficient comp, they are fast in response and keep their clients updated when hired. I hired them to help me recover my FTX Coins after the crash and they did a great job recovering my lost crypto coins. Aside from the impeccable hacking company, it's the servicing that makes you want to continue working with them. ([email protected]) is their email.
