Haunting and engaging.
There is implied abuse just a spoiler alert there for anyone who is sensitive.
Disturbing family dynamics and they all pay the price for their part.

You won't know if you liked this book or if you didn't.
Hard situation to image yourself in and how you would handle it.
It will stay with you.
