EBOOK
About
A riveting literary page-turner that explores the extremes to which a family will go to protect their own, for fans of Miranda Cowley Heller and Laura Dave.
No one is more surprised than Hailey Gelman when she comes under suspicion for the murder of her soon-to-be ex-husband Jonah. Hailey-nicknamed Sunshine by her mother for her bright outlook and ever-present smile, is the peacemaker who has always tried to do what her family expects of her.
The months leading up to Jonah's death have been fraught, including a bitter separation and a messy custody battle over their young daughter, Maya. When Hailey files a motion to relocate to Florida so she can be near her family, the divorce begins to escalate, drawing in all the members of Hailey's family, who are determined to help her however they can.
Most invested is Sherry, Hailey's mother who wants nothing more than to be close to her family. Then there's Nate, Hailey's devoted and protective older brother, as well as the patriarch, Solomon, who is keeping a secret of his own that threatens the stability and security Sherry has worked so hard to maintain. As the divorce spirals dangerously out of control, they are all forced to consider just how far they will go for each other.
Part gripping mystery, part compassionate family drama, “We Would Never” explores what people are capable of when they feel cornered, and how, in the absence of forgiveness, love and hate can intertwine and turn deadly.
