Helpful Score: 1

This book had the opportunity to be decent. In fact it started off pretty good. While I couldn't relate to the characters, I enjoyed learning what it is like to live in family with an autistic(?) child. Then something happened. I think the author decided one day that she could a legal thriller even though the book started off more as a general drama. Then she took LSD (jk) and made some terrible decisions. The plot stopped making sense. The main character fell off the deep end and made decisions no sane person or mother would ever do. She was a lawyer for crying out loud! Anyway, there are points in the book where you will laugh out loud at the sheer stupidity. I don't regret reading it, but would advise Ms. van Heugten to never write another book. Stick to lawyering.
