Published: Grand Central Publishing - March 10th, 2015

Just how painful is it to see a child's flaws or your own flaws in your child? Worse, if your daughter was a sociopath, would you see it? Could you see it? Treadway brilliantly teeters down a very fine line dividing unconditional love and absolute family dysfunction. Speaking in the first person, she tells the story of her youngest daughter, Dawn, who has always been different from the other children her own age and is buried under the spot light of her older, over-achieving sister. Buckets of sibling rivalry and a mom's crushing insecurities make it almost impossible to see what's unfolding in front of her. Scary stuff because it all seems remarkably possible. ~ Reviewed by Gail Cosgriff
