One Fatal Mistake

More about the book

Seventeen-year-old Joshua Jackson is the son of divorced parents. His life in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, is nothing out of the ordinary. Until the night that he accidentally kills someone with his car - and pretends that nothing ever happened. But there was a witness who has left a loose end at the scene of the crime, and when Joshua goes back to clean up, his car is stolen - with the dead body in the trunk. With nowhere to turn, he tells his mother everything. When she reluctantly agrees to help him, they'll both become ensnared in a series of events that will trap him and his family in a web of criminality and deceit. Nothing is safe from harm, and with every decision they're forced to make, Joshua and his family are pulled further away from the normal Midwestern life they've always known. The night hides a multitude of sins and sinners - ones that they'll never see coming.
