The Ones We Trust by Kimberly Belle was a great book. Once I started reading I didn’t want to put the book down. I reminded me of books by one of my favorite authors so I know that was a big part of it for me. I love mystery books and this book didn’t let me down. I liked this one because I didn’t figure out the story after I was a few chapters in. With a lot of mystery books I tend to figure out who did it and I didn’t do that with this book so that made it interesting and kept me reading until the end of the book. If you love mystery books than I would recommend this book to you because it is so well written and I felt like I could relate to the characters.
About The Book
Paperback: 304 pages
Publisher: Mira (July 28, 2015)
When former DC journalist Abigail Wolff attempts to rehabilitate her career, she finds herself at the heart of a US army cover-up involving the death of a soldier in Afghanistan—with unspeakable emotional consequences for one family. As the story of what happened comes to light, Abigail will do anything to write it.
The more evidence she stumbles upon in the case, the fewer people it seems she can trust, including her own father, a retired army general. And she certainly never expected to fall in love with the slain soldier’s brother, Gabe, a bitter man struggling to hold his family together. The investigation eventually leads her to an impossible choice, one of unrelenting sacrifice to protect those she loves.
Beyond the buried truths and betrayals, questions of family loyalty and redemption, Abigail’s search is, most of all, a desperate grasp at carrying on and coping—and seeking hope in the impossible.
