An interesting and heart wrenching story along the lines of how a violent crime changes a family and shapes the young witness of her sister's murder. A good read.

As the rating question said, "recommend with some reservations". Not everyone will like this book. I thought it was interesting but will not read it again.
We agreed that this book was a good read and gave us a chance to examine how forgiveness or lack of it enters into our lives. After the extremely sad and wrenching beginning the story gave way to a good tale.
