Who knew one night would change a whole family? Joshua is with his
dad Ted; just a normal night hitting golf balls, but what happened next
changes all of their lives. Ted gets into a small fight with a perfect
stranger on the road and Joshua tries to get the guy off his dad and
hits him with a brick. Joshua and his father leave the man, agreeing to
never tell anyone what happened.
Karen, Joshua's mother, noticed the next day that he just wasn't
himself. After several days, he finally tells his mother what happened.
They decided to go out where it happened to see if possible the man
was ok. While they were out there two strangers come up to them
waiting in their car. Amber and her husband Ross have just robbed a
bank along with Ross' brother, Shane, who they leave behind. They run
into Karen and Joshua as they are fleeing, and decide to take them
hostage.
At Karen's house, they force Karen to go to the hospital where she
works and steal medication for Amber who has been shot. Karen does
what she has to do to keep Joshua safe. Ted shows up at Karen's
house and he is also taken as a hostage. Now the family must do
everything they can to protect themselves. Will they survive this, and
will Amber and Ted get what is coming to them?
ONE FATAL MISTAKE by Tom Hunt
is a thrilling novel. Hunt shows that a mother will do anything, even
risking her own life, to save her son. The only problem I have with this
book is trying to write the review without giving everything away. One
family will do everything to keep themselves safe, while another family
thinks nothing of robbing places and leaving a family member behind.
This really is a good book. Stay focused as sometimes it could get a
little confusing. Overall it really does keep you on the edge of your
seat.
The author of Killer Choice, a thriller "full of
shocks and twists you won't see coming" (Lee Child),
delivers a nail-biting novel about a hit and run, and a lie
that goes horribly wrong...
Her son accidentally kills a man. They cover it up. Then everything goes wrong.
When eighteen-year-old Joshua Mayo takes a man's life in a
horrible accident, he leaves the scene without reporting the
crime to the police. He hopes to put the awful night behind
him and move on with his life. But, of course, he ends up
telling his mother, Karen, what happened.
Karen has raised Joshua on her own in Cedar Rapids,
Iowa--and she'd thought they'd finally made it. He was doing
well in school and was only months from starting college.
After hearing his dark confession, she is forced to make a
choice no parent should have to make, one that draws them
both into a web of deceit that will change their lives
forever--if they make it out alive....
