This is the best book about domestic abuse I read! A true psychological thriller. The author is brutally honest about depicting the characters. None of them us depicted as a 'saint', or a 'monster'. This makes the whole story deeer and scarier.
Not for me. I am interested in the Alaska frontier community but can't slog through 400 pages of domestic abuse. This is the second Hannah I've abandoned.
