Twenty-five years ago while a snowstorm was occurring, Vinca Rockwell, a 19-year-old student ran away with her philosophy teacher. Rumor has it that Vinca was in love with her philosophy teacher and they ran away together. Vinca believes "love is everything or nothing". That was the last time she was ever seen.
Manon, Thomas, and Maxine were best friends but, they stopped talking to each since graduation. Twenty five years earlier, the three of them committed a murder and they buried the body in the gymnasium wall. The wall is now being slated to be demolished to make way for a new building. The three friends have to decide what they will do about their secret before the body is discovered.
I thought the book was an interesting read. I had a
hard time following some of the references and I felt like I was missing
some nuances. The book did move a bit slow at times but, I found the
ending to be a surprise. I personally didn't care for the main character
because he literally wrapped his entire life to a person who didn't
really care for him. And several times I was curious how he could trust
certain people so blindly. I would be opened to reading more books by
the author.
