Summary: Excellent thriller that just missed being great
Review: While psychologist Tom Seymour and his wife were walking alongside the river, trying to find a way to save their marriage, they came across a young man who swallowed a bottle of pills before throwing himself in the water. Barely thinking, Tom dived in to save the man. He later realises that he knows the man he saved as Danny Miller. In fact, it was his expert testimony that helped to convict Danny, who was 10 years old at the time, of murder.So, was it fate or coincidence that their paths should cross again in such dramatic circumstances? It turns out that Danny is very keen to talk to Tom about the crime he was charged and convicted for. He blames Tom for convincing the jury of his guilt. The rest of the book then deals with the circumstances leading up to the murder, what Danny was like as a child and how he dealt with his childhood incarceration. Ultimately, the truth about the murder is revealed. However, the journey towards this destination is not a particularly eventful one. Apart from Danny's admissions towards the end of the book, there was not a lot that grabbed my attention.
