Camille Gardner lost her daughter five years ago and is still angry and grieving. After a public incident, she joins a Facebook group for grieving mothers. From there, Camille is drawn into the dark web and a collective of women who seek revenge on those who killed their children. Unsure if this group is real or not, Camille finds herself pulled into the group, unsure if its members are survivors or murderers. And finding out the truth may lead to her own demise.

This was such a dark thriller--it pulled me in immediately. It's twisted and a little crazy in its plot, but it's so mesmerizing and keeps you guessing the entire time. Camille's grief and anger seeps through the pages, and the themes of loss and motherhood are prominent throughout the story. It's such a tense tale, as you keep reading and wondering, along with Camille, about the collective and its intentions. The book makes you question yourself and how far would you go to protect or avenge your family.

Overall, this is a twisty and dark thriller with an original and emotional plot. 4+ stars.

I received a copy of this book from William Morrow and Custom House and Netgalley in return for an unbiased review.

SAVING GRACE is a tense, fast-paced, psychological thriller that tells the story of a woman who has been under 'care' for forty years. The ultimate victim of gas-lighting and ulterior motives. It starts with her weaning herself off the tablets prescribed in the hope of reigniting her marriage. What happens next is straight out of the pages of a novel!

Separated into three parts, you get a clear and concise view of just where Grace is. To begin with, I wasn't sure if her husband WAS actually trying to kill her or if it was just an effect of the tablets. Soon I was caught up in a web of lies that had me enthralled.

This is a great thriller that shows just how hard it can be for men and women who have had a gas lighter in their lives! A drama to sink your teeth in with a strong and plentiful supporting cast.

A wonderful read and definitely recommended by me.
