THE DAMAGE BY CAITLIN WAHRER – BOOK REVIEW

PUBLISHED BY PENGUIN ON 8th JULY 2021

Sometimes, the true story is the hardest to believe.

TONY has always looked out for his younger brother, Nick. So when it looks like Nick was the victim of sexual assault, Tony’s anger flares.

JULIA is alarmed by her husband Tony’s obsession with Nick’s case. He’s always had a temper, but does she really know what he’s capable of?

NICK went out for a drink. After that, everything’s a blank. When he woke up he found himself in a world of confusion and pain.

Three ordinary people.
One life-shattering event.
And when the police get involved, this family in crisis might be capable of anything . . .

Caitlin Wahrer is a Maine girl through and through. She was born to two hippies who raised her in Canaan, a small town in central-southern Maine without a single stoplight in it. Caitlin left the state for four years to study criminal justice and marriage and family studies at a college in Pennsylvania. She returned to Maine after graduation to attend law school. She practices civil litigation in Portland. She and her husband, also a lawyer, live in South Portland with their dog.

This was an excellent story, not a very nice thing to read about but it does happen and I think this exposes the emotional responses from the whole family. How do you get over something like this? This takes you through everyone’s emotions and feelings and how they each react. This is written with such feeling you can almost feel their pain.
