I LOVE THIS BOOK. IT TAKES SIMPLE PEOPLE IN A BEAUTIFUL OUTDOOR SETTING, AND PRESENTS A MONSTER OF A MAN WHO HAS MURDERED A MOM AND KIDNAPPED A CHILD. THE STORY IS TOLD BY THE YOUNG WOMEN TRYING TO UNRAVEL THE MYSTERY OF THE CHILD WHO WILL NOT SPEAK. SHE HERSELF IS IN GREAT PERIL. THE WRITING HOWEVER, IS WHAT I LOVE THE BEST - INTELLIGENT AND MOVING.
