Produktbeschreibung
Jodie Garrow's life isn't perfect, but she's come a long way-a beautiful house in the middle of town, two children, a successful husband readying a run for mayor. She could almost forget that one mistake, years ago, that could have cost her everything: an unwise affair, an unwanted pregnancy, an adoption arrangement that wasn't entirely by the book. But a chance reunion leads to disaster: a police investigation, a media storm, a search for a missing child, allegations of murder-and a reckoning with everyone in Jodie's life. Suddenly it seems she could lose everything she's worked so hard to build. Can she prove her innocence? What is the truth, and does it even matter? The Mistake is an acclaimed thriller of buried secrets, the lies we tell each other and ourselves-and what we become when we smell blood in the water.
