Review by: Susan G.
Well written, fast paced, gripping. Very violent and should have a rape trigger warning.
I did enjoy this book; I found it hard to put down. But it is, by no
means, a fun, light, summer beach read. If you like a book that makes
you think deeply and you are not troubled by graphic depictions of
violence I would highly recommend this book.
This book explores the sometimes delicate juxtaposition of power and
vulnerability and how individuals have an almost desperate need to
manage them both. This book explores the extremes of both untamed power
and untamed vulnerability and the deep brutality that ensues when these
states collide.
