This was not a happy book and since I did not like any of the characters and disliked the storyline, how was it that I couldn't put the book down? I found it intriguing and it certainly held my interest.

Two 11 year old girls met one day and were arrested for allegedly killing a 4 year old. They were sent to different prisons and released on life probation, and were never allowed to see each other again. Twenty five years later, they met by chance and you learn what really happened in alternating chapters of past and present. By this time, the two women grew on me and the ending was a shocker i didn't see coming.
