Math and Raccoons

I know many of you might have been slightly hesitant to read this after seeing "Math" in the title. No worries. Math is just what I got out of the title "Indivisible."
That's a book I've recently read. It's a book about raccoons. Well, raccoons aren't the central figures in the story.
Rather, they are part of a mystery that Police Chief Jonah Westfall can't get out of his mind. Others tell him to leave it alone, that it's nothing more than a prank. But Jonah Westfall has a hunch that there is more going on than meets the eye.
Speaking of meeting the eye, the Chief has had his eye on somebody for a long time, but can they get past their past?
This book is all about people who have something in their past affecting them in a major way in the present. We all have things in our past that affect our present. This book reminded me that people are not always who they seem to be. Some people just have walls up or disguises on because of their past.
Well, you'll have to read to find out more. Overall, I thought it was a good book, even though I had gone into it thinking it would be a mystery thriller, and it was actually more about relationships.
The book was provided for review by Waterbrook Multnomah.
Here is a link to an audio interview with the author http://www.multnomahemails.com/wbmlt/audio/Kristen_Heitzmann.mp3
If you want to buy the book, you can go to http://waterbrookmultnomah.com/catalog.php?isbn=9781400073092
If you want to borrow the book, you will have to talk to my mother, who currently has my copy of it.
Thanks for reading.

Hmmm, I think I thought it was going to be a mystery thriller, too, when I got the email about it originally, although I also remember thinking it was funny that the drama was being set up over the death of some raccoons.
