This was an intriguing story/plot line. I have read several books from different points of view, different timelines, timelines that bounce around from past to present or future, and even characters that have multiple personalities and their perspectives. However, the way Sarah Crouch wrote this book was remarkable.
Essentially a young female doctor is found hanged to death. Initially suicide is suspected, but then murder is implicated. What's even more sinister the manner of death was nearly identical to the method of death implied by a local author's failed novel. Not to mention she was found dead on his property!
In the end the true killer is identified; however, there were some plot holes that didn't fit to me (i.e., how were her bare feet so clean?)

Discussion Questions:
- Elijah Leath seemingly leaves to become an author. Do you believe he had other reasons for leaving? Did you believe he was going to return?
- Elijah returns and has ultimately become a man of the land. What do you think the significance of his seclusion is to the story?
- Elijah returns and reconnects with his former lover. What did you think about Elijah and Nakita's relationship?
- Elijah did not connect with his biological father; however, two father figures emerged within the story, Chitto and Reverand Samuel Mills (Nakita's father). Why do you think it was important for the author to include them in the story? What did you think of the timing of their appearance and dismissal (Chitto dies shortly before Elijah reconnects with Nakita)?
- Suicide or Murder? What were some of the clues offered that led the detectives to believe Dr. Erin Landry was murdered.
- Elijah believes Erin framed him for her murder because she blamed him for her daughter's death. What do you think?'
- What are your thoughts on the outcome?
