Review: Graphic yet gently approached
Rating: 3 out of 5

I think this book's description needs to highlight that the woman has been kidnapped, tortured and sexually abused.There may be readers who wish to avoid such topics. In which case this book is not for them.A woman is found barely alive and is late revealed to have suffered terribly.If you can stomach the details of her ill-treatment then her recovery is beautifully and gently detailed.The fact she didnt recover overnight was excellent. The description of her returning to everyday life and the effect it had on her friends was quite true to life and touching.The ending I could have done without - too graphic for me.However, the rest of the book was good.
