"""A devastating and heart-breaking account which sheds light on all of the secrets, the silences, the unnecessary opprobrium, and the injustice that still surround battered women in our society today."" --Sheila Kohler, author of Once We Were Sisters ""This deeply felt and beautifully written book--this tale of tragedy and love, cruelty and community--will stay with me long after Nikki comes home and these two amazing sisters and their children can heal. It will stay with me, inspire me, and fuel my commitment to women, because as little Ben says at the end of the book, ""It's not over until we help all the other mommies who defended themselves get free."" --Elizabeth Lesser, Cofounder of Omega Institute and author of New York Times bestseller, Broken Open"
