A book I thoroughly enjoyed! Told from multiple points of view, the story builds in different directions. A good reminder that "truth" is often a gray area.
Reminds me of the 3 blind men and the elephant, one feeling the trunk, one feeling the tail and one feeling the leg. They each described the elephant as they "saw" it. So, too, the characters in this book "saw" and applied their own point of view to the dilemma therein. Even at the end of the book, the reader is not sure what to believe.

Wonderful story that will break you heart.
