Best friends Julia and Sienna hit it off instantly when a pregnant Julia married Sienna’s brother, Jason. Since Jason and Sienna’s parents were killed years before in a drunk-driving crash and Julia’s mother had previously died from cancer, the three of them quickly became a tightknit family of four when Julia and Jason’s son Aiden was born. Fifteen years later, the women have even gone into business together, working out of Julia and Jason’s home. Things begin to unravel, however, when Jason’s boss is murdered and Jason is seriously injured in a car accident. Although comatose, Jason becomes the prime suspect in his boss’s murder, leaving Julia and Sienna to try to clear his name before he wakes up. As the amateur investigators try to piece together what led to the murder, they begin to realize that they have all been keeping secrets. With the evidence against Jason mounting, the best friends start to question not only how well they know Jason but how well they know each other.
VERDICT A page-turner told from alternating points of view, this thriller from Collins (The Family Plot) will especially appeal to those who enjoy exploring complicated female friendships.
