She thought back to when it was the three of them: Brody, her, Max. A happy family.
What were they now? Blind, divorced, dead.
Summary of Book from Amazon.uk
A tense and powerful emotional thriller from Sam Hayes that asks: Do we ever really know our children?
'What would you do if your teenage son was stabbed to death at school?' That's a question chat-show host Carrie Kent can well imagine posing to any one of her studio guests. Her daily morning TV show deals with real life in all it's grubby glory - from underage sex to benefit swindlers, cheating partners to DNA testing. It's a million miles away from her perfect, polished existence. But when she gets a call to say that her beloved son Max has been murdered, Carrie and her ex-husband Brody will have to enter a world of poverty, fear and violence if they want to find out what really happened. And when the shocking truth is finally revealed, will they be able to live with it...?
