Eastwood will always welcome you home. - It's been two years since the Eastwood Murders case was solved. Evelyn and River are living in Vancouver, a world away from their small hometown. Struggling every day with memories and nightmares, they march on in a ceaseless cycle of healing, breaking, and loving. Until Evelyn gets a phone call from the Eastwood Sheriff's Department. Until Izzy Beaumont dies. When Nicolas's secret lover turns up murdered in the same place as Evelyn's sister, with a note attached to her body, Evie and River are pulled back to their hometown, back into the life they left behind. As old faces come back, they all tell Evie a chorus of the same everything you thought you knew is wrong. As it turns out that Bethany wasn't as innocent as everyone thought, the police think Evie is keeping a secret she hasn't told anyone. In the crosshairs of a fateful investigation, and a tragic event that leaves her and River separated indefinitely, Evie is forced to venture into the dark underbelly of Eastwood, and this time, she might not make it out alive. -The sequel to "The Enigmatic End to Bethany Reed" is just as heart-pounding and fateful as the first, aching with nuanced writing and character depth, bleeding with love and pain. If "The Enigmatic End to Bethany Reed" was grief, then "The Impossible Truth of Life Without You" is death itself. Available 30th August 2024.
