Twelve years ago, when James Dossinger was a child caseworker fresh out of college, his sixteen-year-old client, Isaiah, ran away and was found beaten to death under Manhattan’s West Side Highway. Now working as a sociology professor, James never fully healed from the trauma. When his marriage falls apart and a troubled student shows up in his class, he’s drawn back into the mystery of what happened to Isaiah and his orphaned siblings. But his search for meaning and redemption turns out to be much more dangerous than he could ever have anticipated.
REVIEW:
This was such an incredibly powerful and emotionally charged story. It hooked me immediately and stayed with me after finishing.
James Dossinger, a sociology professor, is blindsided when his husband, Courtney, suddenly asks for time apart. Their strained, messy conversations set the emotional tone, but the real impact of the book comes from what James has been carrying for years.
At twenty‑four, James was a caseworker responsible for sixteen‑year‑old Isaiah, a boy he connected with in a way no one else could. When Isaiah was found beaten to death, James was left shattered. The guilt, the grief, the unanswered questions, they never stopped haunting him.
Now, twelve years later, a troubled student pulls him right back into that unresolved grief, and the deeper James digs, the darker and more disturbing the truth about the past and present becomes.
Told entirely through James’s perspective, the story is raw, intimate, and gripping. I’ll admit, I didn’t like Courtney at first, his all-knowing opinions irritated me, but both men reveal their flaws in ways that feel painfully real and human.
This is a complex, dark and emotional thriller, with a touch of romance. The whole story is compelling, tolerable, and beautifully written.
