The story of a family that moved to Alaska. The father began having rages after he came home from Vietnam. The story is told from the viewpoint of Leni who is 13 at the start of the book and 18 later. She has a friend in Matthew. Her father hates Matthew's father so forbids her to be with him. A lot of violence. Darkness in Alaska and darkness in the family. But there is light, too.
