"First-time novelist, Lisa Blume, crafts a powerful first-hand account of one girl's journey from innocence, through heartbreak, to a surprising form of nascent optimism. The work is at once an unashamed portrayal of sexual and physical violence in the home and a profound indictment of the social systems that sustain it—a poignant and disturbing recollection of human suffering and imagination." ~ Jennifer Manlowe, PhD, author of "Faith Born of Seduction: Sexual Violence, Eating Disorders and Religion"
