Seventeen years ago Toni and her boyfriend were convicted of the murder of her younger sister Nicole. Now on parole and forbidden to contact each other, they want to find the real killers.
THAT NIGHT is thriller writer Chevy Stevens’ latest masterpiece. Alternating chapters between the present and past, Toni’s narration grows from rebellious, self-centered teenager to wounded a middle-aged woman, determined to start her life anew, facing former high school bullies, a mom who doubts her innocence, and an unforgiving small town, convinced of her guilt. Stevens has given us a flawed and not always likable heroine with a knack for finding trouble, but Toni is still easy to root for. With unexpected twists and turns THAT NIGHT kept me reading late into the night, hoping for a good outcome, fearing more tragedy.
I rarely give 5 stars, so when I do it means I will reread the story and recommend it overwhelmingly to others. If you haven’t yet discovered Chevy Stevens, go directly to your bookstore or amazon, do not pass go, do not collect $200.
