Just a year and a half after the tragic death of his wife, Bill Price's fifteen-year-old daughter, Summer, and her best friend, Haley, disappear. Days later, the girls are found in a city park. Haley is dead at the scene, while Summer is left beaten beyond recognition and clinging to life.
As Bill holds vigil over Summer's bandaged body, the only sound the unconscious girl can make is one cryptic and chilling word: No. And the more time Bill spends with Summer, the more he wonders what happened to her. Or if the injured girl in the hospital bed is really his daughter at all.
When troubling new questions about Summer's life surface, Bill is not prepared for the aftershocks. He'll soon discover that both the living and the dead have secrets. And that searching for the truth will tear open old wounds that pierce straight to the heart of his family...
David Bell was an author I had read before and loved. Somebody I Used to Know was a 5 star read for me. While I enjoyed the story in Bring Her Home it just didn't feel very original to me and I felt it was pretty predictable. The writing was good and it moved pretty quickly. In my opinion, there were too many characters and they just weren't quite developed fully. I will read David Bell again, this just wasn't for me.
