Save Me by Lisa ScottolineMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
When you volunteer to take care of other people's children at school, whether you're a room mom, a lunch mom, or chaperoning a field trip or dance, people trust you to look out for their kids as if they are your own. So when an explosion detonates the gas lines in the cafeteria kitchen, lunch mom Rose has to make a choice: get the three children in front of her out, or get to her daughter - alone in the handicapped bathroom next to the blaze - before the inferno is too great to get through.
You can't ignore children in front of you, but your own child is going to be your highest priority, so Rose makes the best compromise she can under the circumstances, and afterwards, when the fallout lands, she is devastated by the results.
She begins investigating the cause of the fire first to clear her own name as the "bad guy" in town, but discovers something that runs far deeper than mom to mom bullying, and goes back many years, to a death no one knew was a murder and a coverup conspiracy that reaches higher than she would have imagined.
This one kept me up late many nights, I had a hard time putting it down! Fabulous, action-packed, with relatable characters and a strong plotline.
