Life is a spiderweb. Mysterious, willowy, fragile. Simple to be tangled in unimportant matters. Irreparably shredded under certain tragic circumstances. And, when one gauzy thread succumbs to the pressure, the surrounding finespun strands crumple; in that instant, the entire web collapses.
A simple act of murder. That's all it is. A hand, holding a knife. Reacting, burying that knife into the stomach of her best friend. No thinking of consequences. Of her husband Liam, what might happen when he hears. Of her best friend's fiancée Harry, the best friend of her husband. Aubrey isn't thinking of anything.
But with a murder comes a trial and in time the whole story connect. Secrets and twists will be revealed, shocking confessions will be spilled, unbelievable betrayals will take place. Lies will be told and truths will be shared. The power of love and the power of friendship will be tested.
The twisted web that has been woven may in fact fall apart.
You won't be disappointed. Cross my heart.
