Terrific book!! Grippando is one of my all time favorite authors. Read all of his books and love them!!
When Ryan James loses his wife in an accident it takes three years for the truth to come out exposing the hit and run drunk driver that no one but his brother-in-law, who suffers from Asperger's Syndrome, knows the truth and has a hard time communicating with other people and it takes the only way he knows to get his message to Ryan and then he is on the run from everyone thinking he is at fault.
This author keeps you guessing. I plan to read more of his books.
This was a great story. Grippando at his best!
This is the first book I have read by James Grippando and I really enjoyed this fast moving thriller. I think I was drawn to reading this because the main character in the book, Ryan James, was a minor league baseball player whose career was derailed after his wife is killed in an automobile accident. This left him alone with his young daughter and no answers to how or who was involved in the accident. It appears that his wife was run off the road by a drunk hit-and-run driver but is that what really happened? His wife's brother has Asperger's syndrome and he may have some answers but can they be relied on. On the 3-year anniversary of the accident, someone is providing some tips that the accident may not have been as it seems and that there was a witness to it. So who is this tipster and what does he know? Ryan, along with Emma Carlisle, the prosecutor on this cold case want to get to the bottom of what happened but getting there does not bode well for them as someone is trying to stop them and the story.
This was really a good page-turner and as I said, I enjoyed it even more because of the tie to baseball which I generally enjoy reading about. I hadn't really heard of this author before but I will probably be reading more of him.

Easy read and enjoyable. I especially found the character with Asperger's Syndrome interesting. The book was not about Asperger's at all, but this supporting character definitely exhibited the personality and traits that you will recognize if you know anyone who has it.
