๐ About this Book
Olivia McAfee has rebuilt her life in a small New Hampshire town with her teenage son, Asher, after leaving behind a painful marriage. She keeps bees, raises Asher on her own, and believes they have finally found some peace.
Then Asher begins dating Lily Campanello, a new girl at school who is also trying to start over. Their relationship seems full of promise until Lily is found dead, and Asher becomes the prime suspect.
As the investigation and trial unfold, secrets from both families begin to surface. The novel moves between Olivia and Lilyโs perspectives, gradually revealing how much can remain hidden even inside the relationships we think we understand best.

โค๏ธ Why Sumaia Recommends It
This is one of those books that starts as a family drama and slowly turns into something much more complicated.
I liked how it explores motherhood, love, identity, trauma, prejudice, and the uncomfortable question of how well we really know the people closest to us. The courtroom element keeps the story moving, but the emotional side is what makes it stay with you.
It is layered, thought-provoking, and full of moral grey areas rather than easy answers.
