A five year old boy is mown down by a speeding car and for some people, life will never be the same. The police attempt to find the driver of the car, and Jenna tries to start over again without her child. She almost finds happiness again in rural Wales - then the past catches up with her.

At the beginning we get dual POV - Jenna Gray in first person present, DI Ray Stevens in third person past tense. In Part II another voice is added, and I found it quite brave to let that person speak and address Jenna. It didn't whitewash anything, on the contrary.

This is a good thriller with jaw-dropping twists but the domestic abuse is hard to stomach. I liked that we learned more about DI Stevens' work and home life, it made the story well-rounded.

To the reviewer confused about miles per hour being used for car speed - the United Kingdom uses miles for road distances and speed limits so it's completely correct.
