Mother has returned and has mothered once again. I love Kara Thomas's books. I've read every one. This one is by far the darkest and most painful. None of the characters are good people, and the plot, while slow is so full of twists and turns that the lack of action isn't missed. The ending is open, which I do kind of hate, hence the four stars
