Robin Ballantyne’s life is finally coming together. After learning she was pregnant with twins and being abandoned by her irresponsible boyfriend, Adam, she’s settling into life as a single mother. But one night, after putting the children to bed, she hears an argument and suddenly, a body falls past her window. Running outside, she finds the body of Paula Carmichael, a renowned activist. When the police find Robin’s name in Paula’s diary and a connection through ex-boyfriend Adam, Robin becomes the prime suspect. She must figure out who killed Paula before she loses her freedom, her children, and her life.

    " Was it murder, suicide or an accident? The story starts with a single mother seeing a neighbor appear to fall out of the sky. Another British crime story that pulled me in enough that I wanted to get to the end to see who the culprit was. A fairly quick easy read. "
