Under Currents
By Nora Roberts
| From the #1 New York Times bestselling author, a novel about the power of family to harmâ??and to heal. Within the walls of a tasteful, perfectly kept house in North Carolinaâ??s Blue Ridge Mountains, young Zane Bigelow feels like a prisoner of war. Strangersâ??and even Zaneâ??s own aunt across the lakeâ??see his parents as a successful surgeon and his stylish wife, making appearances at their childrenâ??s ballet recitals and baseball games. Zane and his sister know the truth: There is something terribly wrong. As his fatherâ??s violent, controlling ragesâ??and his motherâ??s complicityâ??become more and more oppressive, Zane counts the years, months, days until he can escape. He looks out for little Britt, warning her Be smart. Be careful. In fear for his very life, he plays along with the insidious lie that everything is fine, while scribbling his real thoughts in a secret journal he must carefully hide away. When one brutal, shattering night finally reveals cracks in the façade, Zane begins to understand that some people are willing to face the truth, even when it hurts. As he grows into manhood and builds a new kind of family, he will find that while the darkness of his past may always shadow him, it will also show him what is necessary for good to triumphâ??and give him strength to draw on when he once again must stand up and defend himself and the ones he loves... | |
