The Accident by Linwood Barclay

Glen Garber’s life is already in turmoil.

The economic downturn has hit his construction business hard, and a suspicious fire that destroys one of his buildings only adds to his troubles. But in the small town of Milford, he’s not the only one feeling the strain—financial pressures are pushing many to their limits.

Stunned and grieving, Glen is left to care for their young daughter while grappling with shock, anger, and the unsettling question: Was Sheila really responsible?

Determined to uncover the truth, Glen starts digging into the circumstances surrounding the crash—only to discover that Milford harbors far more secrets than he ever imagined. As he pieces together the disturbing reality hidden beneath the town’s quiet surface, he realizes that what happened to Sheila is just the beginning. And the deeper he goes, the more dangerous the truth becomes…
