Redemption Song

December 1, 2017
When Caia Paine's 13-year-old son is hit by a car while skateboarding, her entire world falls apart. With her marriage in tatters as well, all she can think about is finding the driver who took Jack from her. She finally tracks him down to a little village in Spain, where every day she watches him, obsessed with the unfairness that this man has a happy life when her child is gone. She knows what she has to dowarn the people close to him what he is capable of. But when she finally gets close, she finds herself befriending them instead. Suddenly, she is living under the same roof as the man who killed her child, getting to know him, even getting to . . . like him? Caia isn't sure who she would be without the rage that has fueled her up until this point. But maybe there is life after grief after all. Romance writer Crosby's second foray into women's fiction (after The Girl Who Stayed, 2016) is a quick read with charm and quirk.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2017, American Library Association.)
