The Defenceless by Kati Hiekkapelto

4.0

I like the way the author engages with social problems without sounding pedantic and without taking away from the plot. The characters are interesting, if not always likeable. Anna Fekete is a complex and interesting character, an immigrant who speaks flawless Finnish, but who is caught between the country where she was born and the country in which she has lived since she was a young child.
