Book Review: Touchy Subject Matter but Extraodinary Plot!
Summary: 5 Stars

Officer Rainie Connor receives the call to get to the school. She is made primary since the sheriff has two children at the school. When she arrives, she walks into mass chaos. Without experience in this kind of crime, she does the best she can gathering evidence. However, due to circumstance beyond her control, she inadvertently contaminates the crime scene. Into the scene enters Abe Sanders, an investigator for the state. Sanders is a perfectionist who thinks he has the case wrapped up regardless of what Rainie feels. The FBI enters the picture by sending Pierce Quincy. Quincy is a behavioral specialist who is running a study on school shootings. He quickly picks up thread that both Rainie and Abe have missed. Threads that show everything are not as it appears.

Don't let the subject matter put you off this book. Yes, it is hard to read because it concerns school shootings. But the story is so much more than school shootings. Lisa Gardner has truly taken a plot and put so many twists and surprises in it that even the most hard core suspense reader will have trouble figuring out just exactly who is guilty, what is happening, and how it all connects. The characters are fully developed with complex characteristics. Ms. Gardner definitely did her homework on the subject matter and as a result has an extraordinary story that will keep you glued to the story line.
