"A polished Texas thriller that pits a survivor, her horse, and an ex-Chicago cop against a brutal cult. The stakes are high, the twists jolting, and the action is crisp and brutal. What’s most memorable, though, is not the rescues and violent confrontations but the disquieting tension as Blake passes through a world she knows hides horrors. Damien’s tale is complex and occasionally harrowing, though never explicit or gratuitous." — BookLife by Publishers Weekly

"...an engaging story of a woman’s emotional journey...Damien creates a compelling, sympathetic, and admirable protagonist." — KIRKUS REVIEWS

"A young, wounded woman’s redemptive journey of healing through past trauma with the help of a special horse. Haunting, moving, deeply powerful, and ultimately uplifting" — Marlene Adelstein, author of USA Today bestseller Sophie Last Seen

“I hope this story moves you the way it moved me. I hope it reminds you that resilience is not hardening. It is remaining open. And I hope that when you reach the final page, you carry with you the same truth I did: Being wounded does not mean you are broken.”— Mariel Hemingway, Oscar-nominated actress, author, and granddaughter of Ernest Hemingway
