This was dark, disturbing, and thought-provoking. It shifted the spotlight off the killer and onto the women—those he hurt, those who survived him, and those shaped by him.
It was a very emotional look at the ripple effects of violence and how we continue to overlook victims in favor of their killers.
I loved the author’s writing style and the way this story forced me to reflect on how society treats victims and perpetrators of violence.
