About this listen

Who would you choose to believe?

Amos and Emerson have been friends for thirty years. Despite coming from vastly different backgrounds, the two men now form an enviable portrait of middle age: their wives are friends, their teenage daughters have grown up together, their days are passed in the comfortable languor of New York City wealth. They share an unbreakable bond, or so they think.

Now, it is Emerson’s birthday, and Amos and his family are heading upstate to celebrate in Emerson’s beautiful home. Over the course of the weekend, rivalries emerge and tensions escalate, until a final shocking act of violence threatens to tear the two families’ finely made world apart.

In its wake, each of them must choose: between whom and what they love most.

I’m mourning the completion of this book. There are so many books published so many people think that they are writers. This is true literature.

Book of the deacde

The subject matter was well chosen, and certainly highlights the difficulty of confronting a best friend, and changing the details of your life! It also demonstrates the plight of young women who are sexual assault victims! But really? So many words, which have the characters lacking depth, and wrap around what is being said so much, that the points can and are lost! Shame, because it could have been a good book!
