Catch Your Breath — Jessica Auerbach

"Gripping . . . Fast-paced action and finely tuned tension . . . A meaty domestic thriller."          
--Kirkus Reviews

Rosie Sloan is scared to death. Her husband moved out, her two-year-old son has developed terrifying asthma, and now she is charged with child abuse--an accusation she believes no one can take seriously.  

The more frantically Rosie attempts to prove she's a good mother, the more tightly she's trapped by a system that doesn't believe her. Either she's going crazy or someone intends to destroy her. Completely.

"[A] gripping thriller . . . ripped straight from today's headlines .  . . Auerbach masterfully captures the many legal and medical nuances and proves adept at sustaining the suspense."
--Library Journal      

"Auerbach brings her adult characters to vivid life in this tense tale."
