Unraveling Oliver

ByMichelle

Unraveling Oliver is set to be released on August 22, 2017.  A prominent Irish children’s book author snaps and puts his wife into a coma.  People that know Oliver Ryan help put the pieces together to explain why this happened.  Who exactly was Oliver Ryan?  What could make him snap that day?  As the pieces unravel from the various points of view as told by the people that knew him and Oliver, we discover the truth and the lies that were spun since he was a child.  An excellent read.  This book is one of the must reads of 2017-2018.  This debut from Liz Nugent is among the top buzz books selected by publishers to be the IT book of the year.
