From the Inside Flap

Guilt consumed her, its toxic waves crashing against her conscience, until she felt hollowed out. Brainless. Thoughtless. But she cried for the loss, an act which gave her hope. To cry for something meant she'd retained a remnant of what was right. If I cry harder, I'll show everyone I'm a good person.

Good person? Ha! I criticize my own parents. My interest in cadavers is so intense I keep it a secret. And what I did to Theo? I tell anyone and I'll not only lose my license, I might go to jail.

Her throat burned, the pounding in her head intensified, and she felt drained from crying.

Trudy opened her eyes to the brown of Pete's. Thank God, you're here, she wanted to say, but the thing in her throat wouldn't let her. Someone grabbed her hand. Bella. 'Bella Coola,' Roman had nicknamed his grandmother. She was a cool woman, a friend.

Would they be here if they knew my secrets?
