The Lying Woods
by Ashley Elston
Owen foster is at his boarding school when his mom comes to drop a bombshell on him. His family owns the largest business in town and his father has embezzled millions, drained employee's retirement accounts and then disappeared with all the money, leaving his family behind to deal with the aftermath.
Owen returns back home from boarding school, since the family can no longer afford to take him. Owen and his mother have to deal with the aftermath. People lost money, they lost their retirement and they are angry. They take it out on Owen and his mother. They assume that Owen's mother knew about it. She didn't.
Between alternating chapters, it goes back to summer 1999 to Owen's parents.
It was a good story, I liked it.
