One fatal crash

Two colliding worlds

Adam has left his home for the last time. In his final despairing act, he jumps in front of Ben’s car, turning the teacher’s world upside down.

Three wrecked lives

Wracked with guilt, Ben seeks out Alice, Adam’s widow, and her 7-year-old son Max. But as he tries to escape the trauma of the wreckage, could Ben go too far in trying to ease his conscience?

My Review:

The Wreckage is a very gripping, cleverly plotted book which I can’t believe is a debut novel.

I liked the two main characters as they seemed very realistic and relatable which made me like them very much. Alice’s sarcastic remarks and Ben’s sensitivity made them a great pairing who I enjoyed following through the book. Ben’s development was really well done and I found it really interesting how he changed as he grew closer to Alice. We start seeing a different side of him which changes the atmosphere in the book.

This was a difficult book to put down as there was always something going on to keep me absorbed in the story. I kept changing my mind about the characters and how trustworthy they were which kept me guessing as to what was going to happen. The twist and the ending were brilliant and took me completely my surprise. I thought I had figured it all out but I was actually no where near. It’s the type of book that I’d love to reread again soon and see if I missed any vital clues along the way.

Huge thanks to Tracy for inviting me onto the blog tour and to Trapeze for my copy of this book via Netgalley.
