"Todos son sospechosos. Todos tienen algo que esconder. Pero alguien va a tener que responder por la muerte de su hija. En una empobrecida zona de los montes Ozark, en Misuri, en un pueblo pequeño con grandes secretos, dos niñas de doce años aparecen asesinadas. Sin nada que perder y rota de dolor, Eve Taggert se lanza a averiguar qué le ocurrió realmente a su hija. Eve conoce el lado oscuro de la vida. Su propia madre se encargó de enseñárselo. Una dura lección que ella ha tratado desesperadamente de evitar a su pequeña Junie. Pero, contra todos sus instintos, quizá Eve necesite recurrir a la cruel fortaleza que le inculcó su madre para afrontar la verdad sobre el crimen... y sobre su auténtica naturaleza"-- Amazon.com. A story of a mother with nothing left to lose who sets out on an all-consuming quest for justice. The Familiar Dark is a story about the bonds of family, women doing the best they can for their daughters in dire circumstances, as well as a story about how even the darkest and most frightening of places can provide the comfort of home. In a small town in the Missouri Ozarks, Eve Taggert is no stranger to the dark side of life. When her daughter is murdered on the town playground, her quest for justice takes her from the seedy underbelly of town to the quiet woods and, most frighteningly, back to her own mother's trailer.
