Lucy and Savvy were best friends. After attending a friend’s wedding, Savvy is found dead and Lucy unconscious. She has no memory of that day. At first, she was treated as another victim but that soon changed. Everyone became suspicious of her amnesia claim.
Five years later, podcaster Ben Owen is in town asking questions and dredging up old feelings. Lucy is back in town for her grandmother’s birthday party. She agrees to meet with Ben and sit down for an interview. She wants to know what happened as much as anyone.
The story takes place over a two-week period. The characters are somewhat developed, and it is written in the first-person point of view. There is a quirky voice in Lucy’s head that wants to kill everyone. The pace builds as Ben and Lucy investigate the events of five years ago. If you like podcasts and murder mysteries, you will enjoy listening to this. It is just like listening to an episode of a real unsolved murder podcast.
