Blurb
:
When Alex left the clinic that day, she thought she could
move on from the rape that left her pregnant and the agonizing decision to have
an abortion. That is, until the child she thought she left behind contacts her.
Terrorized by mysterious phone calls and guilt, Alex feels her sanity slipping
away as she becomes convinced that she must find the man who brutalized her to
make a family for her dead daughter.
Anti-abortion crusader Tobin Bartell wouldn’t have it any
other way. As The Leader of The Movement, when he’s not organizing protests or
giving speeches, he’s orchestrating a campaign of harassment against women like
Alex…and plotting to kill the local abortion doctor.
And Tobin has no shortage of candidates for the job: Paige
wants money, Courtney wants love, Derek wants to belong. Tobin just wants it
done…and it doesn’t matter to him who does it.
Life. Death. Murder. It’s all the same to them.

Book Review:
This book was difficult to read on
many levels. It is about the abortion
issue, which is so difficult and caustic for so many. But more than that, it is about the evil that
lives in the hearts of man. This story
is told in a disjointed manner, jumping from character to character, with the
point of view shifting as the characters change. This tangled web is very effective for
telling this story as it fits the tangled emotions and frustration laced
through the story.
This is a book that everyone, on
both sides of the abortion issue, should read because it effectively tells both
sides of the story and the raw pain and emotion that exist on both sides. However, emotionally it is very, very hard to
read. I strongly recommend that all
older teens (at the very least college age) students read this book to
understand the emotional baggage that comes with the whole abortion issue on
both sides of the equation.
I give this book a 4 out of 5
because while it was difficult reading emotionally and somewhat literary-wise,
it was also powerfully evocative and life changing.
