Award-winning author Ayelet Gundar-Goshen returns with a powerfully compelling thriller about a mother who begins to suspect her teenage son of committing a terrible crime

Lilach has it all: an enviable home in Silicon Valley, a happy marriage and a close relationship with her sweet, shy teenager, Adam. But her peace is shattered when an attack on a local synagogue compels Adam to join a self-defence class run by a mysterious former army officer.

Lilach watches her son change overnight, and when Adam falls under suspicion for a classmate's death, she must face the terrible question no parent wants to ask: do you ever really know what your child is capable of?
