In Sweet Water, author Cara Reinard weaves a riveting domestic thriller that captivates the reader's attention from beginning to end. Thank you to Thomas & Mercer, NetGalley and the author for the e-ARC in exchange for an honest review. I look forward to reading more by Cara Reinard. The plot is original and a challenging read. What happened in the forest? Did Finn kill his girlfriend? What are Martin and his relatives covering up? Can Sarah find where her loyalties lie? Will the police arrest Finn? The characters are interesting and well-drawn. The story moves between the nineties when Sarah and Martin met at college to the present day’s chaos. The Ellsworths, Martin and his parents, unite to cover their tracks and pretend that Finn was not involved in the young girl’s death. They race to his location, a forest, where they find his girlfriend deceased and Finn drugged and beaten up. Sarah and Martin Ellsworth are awakened to a parent’s worse nightmare: a middle-of-the-night call from their teenage son Finn. Sweet Water by Cara Reinard is a family drama that takes the reader down a path so twisted that you will not know what to expect.
