Devon will do anything to save her son, even if it means facing both of their monstrous personas.
This book was quite gripping and action packed. The characters were gritty and unapologetically imperfect. I appreciated it as a stark metaphor for patriarchy and what breaking a patriarchal society would entail.
Quite enjoyable!
