About the Book
It begins with a phone call. It ends with a missing child.

Six years later …
Karl’s life is in ruins. His marriage is over, his family destroyed. But the woman who took everything away from him is thriving. With a successful career, husband and a gorgeous baby boy, Amanda’s world is complete. Until the day she receives a phone call and in a heartbeat, she is plunged into every mother’s worst nightmare.
My Review
Guilty is a true psychological thriller, with a high suspense element in nearly every chapter. Spanning across several years and focusing on the death of Constance Lawson and the abduction of another child, there are so many layers to this story that will keep you invested until the end. Several times while reading I found goosebumps appearing on my arms, as the story became a little more twisted and a little more twisted. If you choose to read this one – which I do recommend if you are a fan of this genre – get ready for a really wild ride that will have you thinking about the characters after you flip the final page.
