A split-second decision. A man left for dead. A truth that won’t stay buried.

 

When a man is killed in a hit-and-run on a rural road, Kitty Ellison forces herself to forget what she glimpsed in the headlights—until she learns the dead man is her boss.

As police begin asking questions, Kitty’s carefully constructed life starts to crack. Consumed by guilt over taking a shortcut home that night, she tells herself she hit a deer in the chaos of wind and rain—and drove on.

The weight of his death deepens as Kitty confronts how close she was to him. Charismatic, powerful, and deeply flawed, he trusted her with his secrets, while she risked everything to keep their relationship hidden.

With suspicion closing in, Kitty must face the possibility that her greatest crime wasn’t what she did on that road, but the choices she made long before that night.

Because she isn’t just hiding the truth from the police. She’s hiding it from herself.

Some truths don’t stay hidden.

And some choices can’t be undone.

Blind Spot is a psychologically charged thriller about obsession, moral compromise, and the devastating consequences of looking away.
