This was a book I had a hard time putting down each night at bedtime. It drew me in from the start.
Several of the ladies in the bookclub have secrets, but Roux manages to draw many of them out on her first evening with them when she disrupts the bookclub meeting causing the leader, Char, who is Amy's best friend, to depart disappointed in not having gotten to discuss the assigned book at all.
Amy is startled to learn Roux seems to know something of her hidden history when, as a teen, she changed the lives of her best friend, a neighboring family, and her own as well. This sets up the rest of the story where Amy will have to confront Roux to discover just what she knows and what she wants.
Amy's life changing hobby, scuba diving, plays a major part in the novel and it was nice to learn some details about this unusual pastime.
