Imagine finding out that you’re dead, but you find this out while you’re alive. Kind of twisted, right? In this psychological thriller, Neve lives the last week of her life time and time again, trying to find out who killed her and stop it from happening again.
Surrounded by shady people, Neve has her work cut out for her. First, there is her husband, Rick. And then there is her lover, Brad. And what about her daughter, Summer? Do any of them have a reason to kill her?
Jenny and Martyn, the brother and sister who are the head of a group of people that believe aliens are haunting the woods around where Neve lives—or lived—do they have a reason to want Neve to not be around any longer? And Summer is involved in this group even though her mom doesn’t want her to be.
Her friend, Claire, the one person Neve can really talk to, is she as good a friend as Neve believes she is? Does she really care what happens to Neve or is she just looking out for herself? Is Claire maybe tired of listening to Neve’s problems? Does she long for someone to listen to hers?
Her work friend and a teacher, Tom, wants to be there for her and to help her out a bit much for her to be comfortable around him. Is Tom tired of being rejected for Brad?
Is there anyone Neve can trust? Everyone has their own secrets. Neve learns that she can’t trust her first impressions and can’t trust just what she sees on the surface. To find out what happened to her and discover who hated her enough fo kill her, she has to dig deep.
