Kerry Lonsdale

From the Amazon Charts and Wall Street Journal bestselling author comes the first book in a trilogy about love, betrayal, and the secrets families keep. Forced to choose between abortion or adoption, Olivia Carson's younger sister, Lily, runs away from home. Sixteen and pregnant, she never returns. But she writes. Once a year, Lily mails a picture of her son, Josh, to Olivia until his thirteenth year. Then it's Josh himself who arrives at Olivia's house, alone, terrified, and in possession of a notarized declaration from Lily. It begins, "In the event I go missing..." Josh has difficulty talking. He can't read or write, but he's a prolific artist, exhibiting skill beyond his age. His drawings are as detailed as they are horrific. Olivia soon realizes Josh's artwork tells a story. There's more to his arrival and to Lily's untimely disappearance than it seems. Using the drawings as a road map, Olivia traces Josh's path back to his mom. Each drawing sheds light on Lily's past and reveals a darkness that forces Olivia to question everything she thought she knew about her family.

We all get super excited when our favorite authors release a new book. I sit on pins and needles waiting for Kerry Lonsdale's release dates. This book came out at a REALLY bad time for me, and I'm sad it took me so long to actually read it and even longer to review it. My apologies Ms. Lonsdale, I'll do better next time. 
 I won't do a recap for this one, it's a bit of a mystery and I REALLY don't want to give anything away. Lonsdale is really good at crafting a story that weaves family relationships, romantic relationships, and mystery. While this one is truly not difficult to figure out, it still surprised me at the end. I was completely floored by the ending and I am truly going to be chewing some fingernails waiting for the next book in this series. I almost wish I had just waited until she was done with the entire trilogy before getting started. If you haven't yet, you should be reading Kerry Lonsdale.
