About this ebook
In this gripping and emotionally-charged thriller, New York Times bestselling author Heather Gudenkauf shows how all it takes is a single moment to change everything.
In the midst of a sudden spring snowstorm, a man armed with a gun walks into a school.
Officer Meg Barrett holds the responsibility of the children of Broken Branch in her hands. Will Thwaite stands by helplessly and wonders if he has failed his child again. Trapped in her classroom, Evelyn Oliver watches for an opportunity to rescue the children in her care. And thirteen-year-old Augie Baker will risk her own safety to protect her little brother.
As tension mounts with each passing minute, and as the people of Broken Branch race to uncover the identity of the stranger, small acts of fear and courage reveal hidden truths that will alter the town forever.

I read this book in one sitting. It was fairly fast paced but I hesitate to call it thrilling. I loved Mrs. Olliver and both kids. Holly was sort of difficult to like. It mentioned that her infections were bad and no one discussed her release from the hospital anymore. The end doesn't provide us with any clarity or closure on whether she healed or made a recovery.
