On a rainy afternoon, a mother's life is shattered as her son slips from her grip and runs into the street . . .
I Let You Go follows Jenna Gray as she moves to a ramshackle cottage on the remote Welsh coast, trying to escape the memory of the car accident that plays again and again in her mind and desperate to heal from the loss of her child and the rest of her painful past.
At the same time, the novel tracks the pair of Bristol police investigators trying to get to the bottom of this hit-and-run. As they chase down one hopeless lead after another, they find themselves as drawn to each other as they are to the frustrating, twist-filled case before them.

I had heard a lot of hype about this book and it delivered. Since I knew how much people loved it, I must admit that I was looking for things so I wasn't as shocked as others probably were. The writing was fast paced and engaging, so I will be looking for more books by this author. There aren't many books that keep me up late in the night but this one definitely did. While I have never experienced the things that Jenna did, it felt very real and raw. I felt her pain and just connected with her right off. If you love a good thriller, with a story beyond the excitement, this is a great choice!
