Review: Mercy Snow

Mercy Snow by Tiffany Baker

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


In the tiny town of Titan Falls, New Hampshire, the paper mill dictates a quiet, steady rhythm of life. But one day a tragic bus accident sets two families on a course toward destruction, irrevocably altering the lives of everyone in their wake.

June McAllister is the wife of the local mill owner and undisputed first lady in town. But the Snow family, a group of itinerant ne'er-do-wells who live on a decrepit and cursed property, have brought her -- and the town -- nothing but grief.

June will do anything to cover up a dark secret she discovers after the crash, one that threatens to upend her picture-perfect life, even if it means driving the Snow family out of town. But she has never gone up against a force as fierce as the young Mercy Snow. Mercy is determined to protect her rebellious brother, whom the town blames for the accident, despite his innocence. And she has a secret of her own. When an old skeleton is discovered not far from the crash, it beckons Mercy to solve a mystery buried deep within the town's past.

--My thoughts. Everyone knows that the Snows are trouble. So when Mercy, her brother and her little sister show up in town and then the crash happens, it is only probably the thing to do to blame it on him right? But, I think there is more going on in Tital Falls than meets the eye. June is not a nice lady. She is a mitten hiding, briber and nasty woman in my opinion. I love this book! You can smell the mill on your clothes. I used to live close to a mill and it stinks, so I am very familiar with it. Tiffany is a master at storytelling and she did an excellent job with each character. I love Hazel too. Her and her sugar babies! You must read this book. Come join us at shereads.org as we read it this winter and our other books too!

I received this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest opinion.
