How far will you go to protect someone you love? 
After a violent attack, Nicks family will do anything to protect him. 
 

 Okay, wow. This book started off quickly and hit heavy topics very fast. 
This slow burn tells the story while weaving between 2015 and 2019. This book covers “taboo” topics and explores the emotional impact and damage to a victim and their family after a traumatic experience. 
 
This book took me a little longer to read because of the tough subject matter, however it is very relevant in todays society. 
 
With the ending you didn’t see coming, I highly recommend this book.
