She saved her son once. Would she do the same again?
Sara and her family needed a fresh start after a tragedy that ruined many lives. They have found peace since arriving at their new home in the Kielder Forest National Park twelve months ago. That is, unless you count the dark cloud that has settled over them, and the crippling tension behind closed doors. Sara tries to pretend everything is normal, but in reality she is haunted by a devastating truth about one of her children.
Travis, a local art teacher with a reputation as a counsellor skilled at helping troubled teens, has been watching Sara. He sees her fragility, and believes that he can fix her, and her eldest son. Like his mother, Scott barely speaks, and has a look in his eye that hints of unimaginable trauma. If he can persuade Sara to trust him, she will see that Travis can take away the pain she is also suffering.
But below the surface, Sara is anything but weak. And when she is cornered, she will go to extreme lengths to protect her most precious boy.
A good mother will do anything for her child. She may even kill for him…
