This book follows the discussion of a community as the women decide what to do in the aftermath of a series of assaults. It unwinds slowly as the women focus on three limited options: leave, stay and fight, or do nothing. While characterization is a major goal of this book as the women's personalities push-and-pull their discussions, there is still a decent amount of action and suspense.
