The latest tag-team effort from Dekker and Healy focuses on Janeal Mikkado, a young woman whose choices lead her to be faced with a life-or-death decision concerning her best friend...and what she does in that moment will alter the course of her life forever. Although conceptually intriguing, this book falls flat. The major ‘twist’ of this book is so improbable (and never fully explained) that it simply fails to hold together what little story there is.

Dekker returns to form in this gripping tale of a woman who loses six months of her memory following a car crash. As she tries to regain lost time, she discovers her memory loss might not be accidental, and the list of people she can trust is growing smaller. Dekker delivers a solid work of fiction (though I’m guessing Healy did most of the writing) that avoids the twin pitfalls of heavy-handed plot and shallow characters.
