Extra, Extra, Read All About it!
We don’t know much about Amber Glass and the infamy causing her to escape her hometown the second she turned eighteen.
Dubbed ‘The Prom Mom’ for giving birth in a bathroom during a high school dance, the scandalous title dominated media headlines some twenty years prior.
Now a successful adult with more confidence, she moves back wondering if she could blend in and exist without the teenage moniker.
We discover more about Amber and the people surrounding her as the outline fills. Several voices are depicted with one person especially nuanced as casual entitlement gives way to a deeper understanding. A fascinating journey.
As a domestic suspense novel, this was dense with information. A slow burn with no empty words and a sinister gloss.
I love Laura Lippman as an author. I became a fan after reading To the Power of Three many years ago and each book since had sophisticated literary elements within my reach without being magniloquent.
Purchased at Barnes and Noble.
