The story looks interesting as it explores the hardships of feeling guilty for an accident involving the deaths of three people. The situation seems worse as Emma has no memory of what happened. Maybe she wasn't the culprit even. Emma's character is fascinating because of all the psychological challenges she faces. In short, it sounds like an exciting psychological, crime and mystery thriller.

This book is truly amazing. It is entirely praiseworthy for a psychological thriller with a plot that combines mystery, trauma, emotions, and regression fighting for survival.

I'm curious to see how the plot unfolds. How tough it is to live with the guilt of having contributed to three fatalities for which the cause is also unknown. How difficult will it be for her to acknowledge his presence and work tirelessly to discover the truth about the three deaths? Without a doubt, I will take this intriguing masterpiece.

" Drawn from Life" by Sarah P. Blanchard brings to the forefront the trauma one experiences from surviving an accident that resulted in the deaths of other people.
Emma Gillen's guilt eight years later, as well as her efforts to remember what happened at that fatal moment, does indeed depict her strength and compassion as a lead character in this fantastic plot.
This is a psychological thriller worth exploring!

Emma does not remember how the accident happened eight years ago and is psychologically scarred. She feels guilty about the three deaths that occurred. Will her cousin Lucy be able to help her remember? How does their uncle's inheritance play into this? Why is Emma being targeted? Read the book! :techie-studyinggray:
