I have never heard of this author and one thing I enjoy as a reader is discovering new authors.
I enjoyed this story. It had the right amount of twistedness
to keep me turning pages. I liked the way this story flowed and unfolded. I
enjoyed reading about the Fab Five and their secret, the glue that made them
stay quiet over the years. The Fab Five consisted of Mitch, Dan, Kelly-Ann,
Lauren, and Rick. Each of the Fab Five grew up to lead relatively normal lives,
but there was something that continually haunted all of them.
Wyatt and Sykes Bucks – brothers. Wyatt wanted to be like
his older brother, Sykes, or so it seemed. Both were troublemakers.
There is also a bit of a ghost story involved in this tale
of childhood gone wrong.
What I also enjoyed about this tale is how the chapters
ended with a phrase that led right into the following chapter, the chapters of
which flipped back and forth between the present time and memories of a
long-past childhood that surrounded each character and what they each had to
lose as adults if their secret was revealed. Who would benefit the most from
the secret remaining buried? Who wanted to gather everyone in adulthood to make
sure everyone stayed silent? A ghost from the past or one of the Fab Five?
