How will your adult son coming home to live with you at your request work out?
Valerie’s husband passed away a few years ago, and she is now suffering with memory loss.
She hopes having her son with her will give her some peace of mind, but the opposite happens.
Her son Hudson isn’t the best person to have around. He has a history in the town. He was accused of murdering his girlfriend.
The murdered girl’s mother lives next door and hasn’t forgotten about Hudson especially since he was found not guilty of the crime.
What is going to happen now that Hudson is back home?
Plenty...including one girl and then another murdered.
We keep getting a hint about something that Valerie did in the past, and she does things in the present that are a bit unbelievable.
Which character is hiding things? I was thinking all of them.
A MOTHER WOULD KNOW has no likable characters in it, and the story line is very confusing.
One minute it’s in the present day and in almost the next sentence it’s in the past, and it takes a minute to figure out where you are in time.
Even though there are some surprises and a great ending, I was a bit disappointed because the book was all over the place, and I have enjoyed other books by Ms. Garza. 3/5
This book was given to me by the publisher via NetGalley for an honest review.
Have you read this book?
