Kate Wilhelm has the ability to create characters that the reader cares about. In this book Barbara Holloway, Oregon lawyer, defends a battered woman, who took her baby to a home providing shelter to such women. The home is burned down, and the woman is labeled a "Baby Killer." Barbara, her lawyer-father Frank, and their investigator, Bailey, find neighbors who think women should be subservient to their husbands, and another who has a gun testing range. An excellent read.
