Customer Reviews

Intriguing, thought-provoking and visceral

Not only did this book handle an incredibly difficult topic respectfully but it also presented the main characters as sympathetic without making excuses for their actions. Pedophilia seems to be the one true sin that cannot be forgiven, but following Noah through his sheer agony shows just how devastating it is to suffer in silence. This was a fantastic book and I understand the ending entirely, sympathizing with the mother through the entire arc.
