Oliver decides to visit a gay bathhouse, despite being in a dedicated relationship with his partner. A traumatic incident occurs during this visit which sets off a chain of events. Oliver continues to have to lie to the people in his life to cover up his betrayal, but his lies are catching up to him. I enjoyed this novel because it didn't remind me of any book I've read before. A while ago, the majority of the books I read were thrillers. However, I have since strayed from that genre because the books started to all have the same plotline. I recommend trying this title from P.J. Vernon if you are looking for a fast-paced, unique read.
