Fault Tree by Louise Ure

Arizona auto mechanic Cadence Moran is no stranger to darkness. She was blinded in a horrific car accident eight years ago that also took the life of her three-year old niece. She knows she was only partially to blame, but that doesn't make the loss any easier to bear. She's learned to get by, but there are still painful memories. When she is almost run down by a speeding car on the way home from work, Cadence at first thinks that she is the victim of road rage or a bad driver. But that's not the case. In fact, she is the only witness to the murder of her elderly neighbor, and now the killer believes that she's seen the getaway car.

This was a very intense mystery in which we see the story from Cadence's as well as the murder's point of view. The chapters were short and intense and made me want to keep turning the page to see how the plot developes. Cadence is dealing with a lot of personal guilt - what she calls her Fault Tree. It was fascinating to see how she dealt with the car-accident that took her sight as well as killed her young niece.
