#4 Quiet in Her Bones by Nalini Singh

This is a mystery with an unreliable narrator. Aarav’s mother disappeared ten years ago on a rainy night and 250k went with her from her husband’s safe.  Aarav is at the family home recovering from a car accident when the cops knock on the door to let him and his dad know that his mom’s body has been found not that far from the house in a deep ravine still in the car she drove off in but it seems the money is missing. Aarav is nosey and picks back up his habit on spying on his childhood neighbors in this ritzy secluded neighborhood. He starts questioning everyone that knew his mom and was home on that day of the crash. As the story unfolds you find out more about the unhappy marriage of his parents and that his mom wasn’t always a good person. Things that he remembers don’t always add up and he even starts to doubt himself.  The overall story is good and it was refreshing to read and not know what happened until the end.
