Thank you @macmillan.audio for the ARC. Josh is found dead at Rosebank, a home for troubled teens and Chloe is missing. Josh is an employee and Chloe is a 14 year old resident. It’s unclear if Chloe is a victim or a murdered. The story was a tad slow for me while the team unravels the mystery. This is my first book of the series.

Finally a good memoir!! It is unbelievable what Tia had to endure at the hands of her husband in a Christian fundamentalist marriage. This is a crazy Finally a good memoir!! It is unbelievable what Tia had to endure at the hands of her husband in a Christian fundamentalist marriage. This is a crazy lifestyle as they practice domestic discipline and a wife being a submissive servant. Saying yes my lord to your husband. Her husband was barbaric. Raping her, telling her he hated her taste, her smell and fluids, and that her rebellion was a cock blocker. He was physically abusive.Thankfully she was able to move on and away from the church and her husband and a build a life for herself and her children.
