Saturday, May 7, 2022

 


The Bennetts are your typical suburban family. Jason owns his own business as a court reporter. His wife, Lucinda, has her own photography business and is well-liked in their community. Their two children, Allison and Ethan, are popular, well-liked students. Their charmed life comes to a screeching halt when the Bennett family is driving home from a field hockey game. A seemingly random act of violence changes their lives forever. The Bennett family has to give up everything to join witness protection. It forced them to leave their homes, leave their careers, leave everything behind hoping they will remain safe. Jason is desperate to keep his family safe, but even he knows that until these people are caught their lives will never be the same. 

Do you remember the old movie with Sarah Jessica Parker and Hugh Grant? That movie was on my mind as I started to read What Happened to the Bennetts. But it was clear very early on that this book was not a romantic comedy set in Wyoming. Yes, the Bennett family had their entire life uprooted, but they were also dealing with profound grief. But one of the Bennetts has been keeping a secret that may be the final blow to a tenuous situation. CLICK HERE FOR SPOILERS

Bottom Line - What Happened to the Bennetts is Lisa Scottoline at her best. Full of twists and turns, you will not be able to put this book down!
