Title: In An Instant

Author: Suzanne Redfearn

Published: March 2020, Lake Union Publishing

Format: ARC Paperback, 332 pages

Summary: 

A deeply moving story of carrying on even when it seems impossible.

Life
is over in an instant for sixteen-year-old Finn Miller when a
devastating car accident tumbles her and ten others over the side of a
mountain. Suspended between worlds, she watches helplessly as those she
loves struggle to survive.

Impossible choices are made, decisions
that leave the survivors tormented with grief and regret. Unable to let
go, Finn keeps vigil as they struggle to reclaim their shattered lives.
Jack, her father, who seeks vengeance against the one person he can
blame other than himself; her best friend, Mo, who bravely searches for
the truth as the story of their survival is rewritten; her sister Chloe,
who knows Finn lingers and yearns to join her; and her mother, Ann, who
saved them all but is haunted by her decisions. Finn needs to move on,
but how can she with her family still in pieces?

Heartrending yet ultimately redemptive, In an Instant is a story about the power of love, the meaning of family, and carrying on…even when it seems impossible.

desperation to be alive and connected to her family is a reminder of how
fragile the things we take for granted truly are. Suzanne Redfearn’s In an Instant will make you thankful for every breath you take.” —Kristin Fields, author of A Lily in the Light
