The writer captures Wren's fear well - hence my unease. The Amazon synopsis is good – I didn’t, and still don’t having finished the book, understand the initial chase. It seems everyone lies at some point – even poor Wren. It covers betrayal, cheating, deception, hatred and bigotry, the warmth and support of family, but also the harm unquestioning loyalty can sometimes cause. This is a sad little tale – beautifully read, and quietly absorbing, but ultimately sad. Well writtten, absorbing, intriguing but also sad ![]()
