Cassie Jensen appears to have the perfect life. She and her handsome young husband are head-over-heels in love, and her mother-in-law is devoted to the young couple. All is well until Cassie leaves a Christmas party alone and is later found in a ditch, with hypothermia and injuries that suggest she was run over. She ends up sharing a hospital ward with Frank, a patient who, like Cassie, seems to be in an unreachable state. But Frank actually has locked-in syndrome, meaning that he can see and hear but not move or communicate. As time goes on, Frank comes to realize that Cassie is in great danger. Finding out who exactly bears the vulnerable young woman ill will is a mystery that unfolds via shifting points of view, exposing betrayals new and old as well as wretched regrets. Elgar's gratifying, well-written tale of family predicaments will be a good match for women's-fiction readers looking for something a bit darker.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2017, American Library Association.)
