Growing up in the 1960s in a small rural community, Suzanne Covich is the kind of girl who won't cry, who plays dead, and whose vulnerability is disguised beneath Huck Finn bravado. Her father, on the other hand, is the kind of man who will burn down the house and crawl between his daughters' sheets. Raw and compelling, this is the extraordinary memoir of a violent childhood and the uplifting account of triumph over adversity.
