Under Currents by Nora Roberts

  Goodreads Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/4192348883 Another amazing story from Nora Roberts. However, I must warn you that Under Currents may trigger you due to issues of domestic violence and child abuse. Nora Roberts does a great job capturing the emotions involved as the main character grows up in an abusive household and does his best to protect his sister. Through sheer determination and smarts, and a desire to protect each other, the siblings find a way out and have to learn to accept and move on from the past. The story also goes pretty in depth through the legal system as those who care for the siblings fight to get them justice. I was nearly in tears throughout the story, and you couldn't help but watch as history repeats itself over and over and comes back to haunt them time and again. Though parts of the story are a bit rushed, as we start in childhood to the mid-thirties, the book is almost as thorough as Roberts trilogies. I highly recommend this book
