Deep Dark Waves
From the acclaimed author of Stony River comes a fascinating story about a woman ensnared in the past like an insect in amber. Sona is an accomplished professional with a tangled, complicated history. She’s a wife without a husband and a mother without a child. But as she recounts her story of victimization to a group of sympathetic supporters, the gaps and inconsistencies suggest an even more disturbing reality. Deep Dark Waves is a bracingly honest account of marital discord, revenge and a woman’s sexual response to violence.
