Three damaged souls and an innocent baby! What an intriguing cast of characters for a roller-coaster ride of a novel. From the beginning, it was clear that Maddie, Ian, and Joanna would meet disastrous fates. What was not clear, until the very end, was what that fate would be, and by whose had it would happen. Even at the very end, suspense surrounds the fate of Maddie. And the reader is left pondering baby Charlie's future. Is there a hope that he will lead a conventional life? If so, where and with whom? This book is a treatise on the ravages of war and the lasting impact of a childhood accident. This book should cause any thinking person to think more deeply about how every action causes an unexpected, and sometimes dangerous, reaction.
