"Hurry Home" by Roz Nay is a recent novel I finished reading.
The story is narrated by sisters Alex and Ruth in alternative chapters.
We cannot trust either of their versions.
Chase is Alex's boyfriend. Alex lives with Chase in his apartment. Ruth shows up at Alex's doorstep pregnant.
Alex let her live with them. But, she had an agenda. Alex uses her power as a social worker to "save kids" as she tells in the story. She doesn't like her co-worker Minerva. Their boss is not interested in confrontation. Sully is a police officer. Alex is friends with him. But Chase didn't know that.
Eli Beck is the father of Ruth's child. He is a drug dealer. Ruth brought money and drugs with her when she came to Alex's house. That is missing.
Chase learns a lot about Alex and her past life from Ruth. While we are nearing the end of the novel, we can trust one of the sisters.
I cannot figure out why Alex behaves like she does in the novel.
