About this deal

The body count begins to climb and Cal is working his hardest to find the killer, but unfortunately his fellow officers and the town itself start to point the finger at him. The story is told over two timelines, past and present. Daniel is forced to face his past but will his feelings for Sebastian and his own memories blind him to the truth? What really happened in the park and who, ultimately, is to blame for a little boy’s death? Daniel is forced to rethink everything he ever believed as he begins to understand what it means to be wrong and to be the guilty one. Solicitor Daniel Hunter life changes when he meets Sebastian, a young boy whose trouble home life reminds him of his own childhood in foster care. Daniel had a similar troubled past only to be saved by a woman named Minnie who he feels later betrayed him so he cut her out of his life. Daniel and Sebastian’s meeting sparks the beginning of the solicitor searching his mind into his past. Thank you NetGalley and Dreamscape Media for accepting my request to audibly read and review The Guilty One. The ending was strong and unlike what I expected. Cal and Heather parted on good terms. She returned to her hometown to be with family while he snagged his dream job of working in the Crimes Against Persons section. As for Blye, he would face charges if he survived.

Jasmine and Nicolas are twins who just celebrated their birthday. During the night, tragedy strikes, leaving one twin dead and the other one on the run. In conclusion, there are other books I have enjoyed more. But you could enjoy this book. Possibly you would have to be someone who never saw a police drama on television in your life. Then you wouldn’t be used to the very creative writers who come up with very creative ways a crime can be committed and the reasons crimes are committed. On the other hand, sometimes bad deeds are just bad deeds and maybe that’s what this book was written for. If you love psychological thrillers mixed with a little police procedural and a whole lot of suspense, this is the book for you!

Need Help?

While out on a run, hero Cal discovers a body hanging from one of the highest trees in the woods. And that’s only the beginning. In London’s very gentrified neighborhood of Islington an eight-year-old boy is murdered in a playground. The suspect is slight, eleven-year-old, Sebastian Croll, a friend of the victim. Seb is an odd sort, removed, serene in the presence of danger and pressure, until, that is, he breaks down and tosses tantrums that any three-year-old would find to be fine examples of the art. His home life leaves much to be desired, with a dodgy, self-medicating mom and an abusive, remote father. Is young Seb a sociopathic monster, someone spotted in the wrong place at the wrong time, or even a victim? Minnie Flynn had suffered a loss that most of us could not bear. Maybe she shared life on her small Cumbrian farm with a series of foster kids to fill that need. But she took a special shine to young Daniel, and, despite the mayhem he causes when he comes under her care, he takes a shining to her. Although there is no romance involved, this is a very, very powerful love story. You will need tissues. Daniel was a lot to handle as a kid. Living with a junkie for a mother he was subjected to more than the usual sorts of childhood challenges. Most five-year-olds are not beaten up by their mother’s low-life boyfriend, or bear witness to low behavior of many sorts. No wonder he was so angry. And then the state decides that his mother is not fit to keep her son and Daniel begins the grand tour of foster homes. It would have taken someone with the patience of a saint to cope with his rage. And while Minnie does indeed have a breaking point, it is she, ultimately, who offers Daniel a safe haven, not only from the world, but from himself. She is one of those parental sorts who actually can set boundaries. She is one who can see the potential in Daniel beneath the maelstrom. And it is she who changes the direction of his life.

Cal's only friend and Heather's boyfriend, Jason Blye had been secretly working with the mass shooter. Blye had befriended him and orchestrated his firing to rile him up to the point of shooting the place up. A little boy is found dead in a children’s playground and his eleven year old friend, Sebastian stands accused.Throughout the story, we are introduced to parts of Daniel's childhood. Those memories are triggered by a boy called Sebastian, Daniel's 11 year old client who was arrested because of a murder. I thought, during the dual timeline, it was really good. The THEN chapters were fast and thrilling. The NOW makes it interesting to see how Cal struggled with impostor syndrome (he couldn't remember anything, how he could be a hero?). Billed as a mystery, this is really a haunting and sad case study of two very damaged young boys. The protagonist, Daniel, is a solicitor assigned to defend eleven year Sebastian, a creepily precocious boy who has been accused of brutally murdering his much younger playmate Ben. The case comes at the same time that Daniel learns of the death of the kind and generous Minnie, the woman who basically saved his life so many years ago when she adopted him.
