This is the story of Green, brought up in a commune living in an decrepit house near a stone circle. To her it is normal to live in isolation and squalor; to not really know who is a relative and who is just another member of the family; to accept that 'The Bad' must be cast from her.
Although I found the part where Green is at Foxlowe fairly horrific at times,what happened after she left was an even more disturbing read. I felt for Green and wondered if there would ever be somewhere she would feel she belonged again.
I found this a difficult book to read and review but it is well worth reading. Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the chance to read and review this book.
