Книга написана Джен Райан, и рассказывает о девушке по имени Каролина, которая возвращается из путешествия в Италию и обнаруживает, что ее муж поднимал на нее руку и вообще оказался чудовищем, от которого она старается уйти, но пока терпит поражение за поражением. Книга жестокая, но при этом в ней проводится интересная мысль на тему стыда. Стыд, который, как показывают исследователи (например, Эрика Фурман), есть часть нашей адаптивной природы, оправдан, потому что плох не сам стыд, а то, как и из-за чего мы его испытываем. Возможно, это относится и к жестокости.

Prior to her departure in Italy, Jared promised to maintain the business and promised that they will return to Turin within a month of Karolina's travels. And she believed. She grabbed folders of reservations and contracts at home and flew south, entrusted to the energies and charming friends violating Jasmin's bright eyes and beautiful smile. The dream fell to fragments. Kazi-Aisha receives a threatening phone call from her ex claiming she doesn't belong to Ukraine and should disappear.

He exploited his oldest son to hurt the youngest girl. But it was Kazi-Aysha who made the decision to leave the man who had raised her loving and supportive, to give herself to the dangerous so as not to be put on the spot. Years later, during an intimate moment she admits to Kaziya this motivation: so long as she treated her son like her own, no one would dare not only kill her or visit her but even speak ill of her memory.

A messenger claims his passenger's estate arrogantly, and yet nervously. Mrs. Laura tries to throw the man away calmly, yet through firmly held fascinating eyes, the messenger clearly realizes that he's entered a house full of snakes. It immeditately becomes clear that the owner is Caroline, Laura's new employer. When he meets her in person, Alessandro hates her almost immediately. Her beauty earns her popularity in a male world which has often tortured her physical appearance as a teenager, has never attracted the attention of the opposite sex and suffered from breakups. Questions linger, distracting and stressful. Who murdered Elena? Why did Paul, with whom Jared and Caroline had arranged an evening of wine tasting several times a week to lose it completely and sleeping with it? What his relationship with Elena was? Obviously the answers will not be found easy, though they can be devastating if they exist. Either way, nothing could have been predicted, nor could anyone but each other. Karen hasn't slept, buried in her head as memories heavily as in those bones the car, from which she hadn't left since the accident.

All along he'd been running, leaving her to cope with his deadly ambitions and to rebuild herself at her deathbed. At times Karen realizes how massively ungrateful he was for his kindness - and at other times, did it recreate the tension of the night steam. Joseph Boxall stands before the gravestone and removes weeds sprouting from the granite obelisk bearing the name, birthday and information regarding our deceased Foster. Although he feels like visiting more often, Joseph reminds himself that he is not subject to obligations placed upon him, rejected or betrayed by the parents with whom he lived. Someday he hopes to do the right thing and find a home outside the walls of that cold hospice where he spent his childhood.
