Flash marriage was oddly heartwarming and believable. Their slow bloom felt like stolen afternoons and steady protection.

I cried when Joan blinked with a child's wonder. Then her memory returned and my pulse matched her roaring need for justice.

Sea-washed betrayal and childlike innocence make a haunting tapestry. The prose treats memory and loyalty like fragile glass.
