The Guilt We Carry (Paperback)

Paperback. Since the tragic accident that brutally ended her childhood, Alice O'Farrell has been haunted by her past. Unable to bear the guilt of negligence that led to the death of her younger brother, fifteen-year-old Alice runs away from home. She lives on the streets, makes one bad decision after another, and drowns her guilt in alcohol. But, everything changes when she stumbles upon a startling scene: a dead drug dealer and a duffel bag full of ninety-one thousand dollars in cash. Recognizing this as an opportunity for a fresh start, Alice takes the money and runs. However, she soon finds herself fleeing from more than her own past-the dead dealer's drug supplier wants his money back and will destroy her to get it. A merciless manhunt ensues, headed by Sinclair-a formidable opponent-relentless, shrewd, and brutal. As blood is spilled all around her, Alice is eventually faced with her day of reckoning. In the end, The Guilt We Carry is a story about redemption and forgiveness, but at what cost? A frantic race against the clock, against death, against inner demons. After Alice O'Farrell's negligence in the tragic accident that results in her younger brother's death, her life spirals out of control. That is, until the day she discovers a duffel bag full of cash and runs, quickly finding herself trapped in circumstances far more harrowing than her own past.
