Book Reviews
[M]oving, if at times maudlin.... Could [Simon Connolly] really have been so grievously wrong about what kind of boy he was raising?... Reardon deftly builds suspense by setting his dual story lines on a collision course toward a shattering—and surprising—conclusion.
Publishers Weekly
Simon Connolly is the anguished father and narrator in this psychological thriller.... [H]e's not sure whether he can believe in [his son] Jake's innocence. He reviews incidents from Jake's past...that might (or might not) be significant. A compelling read; disturbingly relevant in contemporary America.
