Описание:

Chris Whitakers We Begin at the End looks at families--the ones we are born into and the ones we create. It shows how revenge and justice are often two very different things. It reveals how doing right can easily be wrong.

Right. Wrong. Life is lived somewhere in between.

Duchess Day Radley is a thirteen-year-old self-proclaimed outlaw. Rules are for other people. At school the other kids make fun of her--her clothes are torn, her hair a mess. But let them throw their sticks, because shell throw stones. Duchess might be a badass, but shes really just trying to survive. She is the fierce protector of her five-year-old brother, Robin. She is the parent to her mother, Star, a single mom incapable of taking care of herself, let alone her two kids.

Walk has never left the coastal California town where he and Star grew up. Hes the chief of police, trying to keep Cape Haven, with its beautiful bluffs overlooking the sea, not only safe, but safe from becoming a cookie-cutter tourist destination for the rich. But hes still trying to heal the old wound of having given the testimony that sent his best friend, Vincent King, to prison decades before. And hes in overdrive protecting Duchess and her brother as their mother slides deeper into self-destruction.

Now, thirty years later, Vincent is being released. As soon as he steps one foot back into his childhood town, trouble arrives. It shows up on Walks and Duchesss doorsteps, and they will be unable to do anything but usher it in, arms wide closed.

Duchess and Walk--and everyone they love and whose hearts they break, who deserve so much more than life serves them--will sear your heart in this extraordinary novel.

We Begin at the End, Whitaker Chris
