I wasn't sure if I would like this book because it centers around a church; I am not religious and I was afraid it would have a preachy subtext. I need not have worried. It was the perfect book of people being people and a great example of how generational pain is passed on. It was more than your average thriller, but it did have some great shocking moments. I highly recommend this. Trigger warnings abound!
