The first page caught my attention.
Loved how the chapters weren't so lengthy.
I highly recommend it.
It should be made into a movie!
This book is about an alcoholic veternarian named Helen.
Vodka.
Lots of vodka.
At the bar one night, she saw a man and made a plan.
More vodka and then a dance.
The next morning her body hurt.
There were bite marks on her breasts.
What the hell happened?
What happened?
A hit and run.
A death.
Two deaths (wife and unborn child)
Grief.
Shock.
Bitterness.
No witnesses.
Or were there?
The morning news reported the accident.
Helen watched.
Panic ran to the garage.
Her car was there as usual.
A red Honda...
With front end damage.
Evidence.
NO!
Vomit.
GUILT.
A plan grew from panic: Cover up the crime.
Alcoholic Anonymous.
(These people are insane!)
Helen was about to walk out the door when she was stopped.
Hello new sponsor friend (priest)
(forgive me Father, for I have sinned. Here is my confession)
(PS: be careful who you confess to...)
Helen had been sober for six months now...
Living with guilt and watching.
Edgar was a teacher.
An empty shell since his wife's death.
One day the doorbell rang.
There stood Helen.
"I've come about your wife."
Did she confess?
NO.
The plot thickens and Helen gets away with murder...
How? Read the book.
"Hush little baby, don't say a word. Mama's going to buy you a mockingbird..."
