We are already quite used to stellar thriller releases that end up discovering us new narrators of the criminal like Amy Engel's turn today. Thus, the black gender seems to become overexploited fishing ground where more and more subgenera appear. From the domestic thriller to the gore, each author proposes and the reader disposes.
This time Amy Engel leads us through dark recesses of very close underworlds who always seem to be in contact with those who have already visited them on occasion. So we get closer to Eve, a new heroine of squalor who would like to be able to get rid of that unfortunate implacable destiny that disrupts every plan to become fatal.
In an impoverished area of the Ozark Mountains in Missouri, in a small town with great secrets, two twelve-year-old girls are found murdered. With nothing to lose and broken in pain, Eve Taggert sets out to find out what really happened to her daughter.
Eve knows the dark side of life. His own mother took it upon himself to teach it to him. A harsh lesson that she has desperately tried to avoid her little Junie. But, against all her instincts, Eve may need to draw on the cruel fortitude her mother instilled in her to face the truth about the crime… and her true nature.
A powerful and edgy story about family ties, about women struggling in dire circumstances, and how even the darkest and most terrifying places can offer you the refuge of home.
