When the justice system fails her daughter, a courageous mother takes matters into her own hands. In a wrenching race against time, the safety of one child is entangled in bottled-up family dynamics, court theatrics, media frenzy, and the political machine.

Perla, a young Jewish woman, was raised in an extreme ultra-orthodox society. When she turns 18, and her parents have a hard time finding a match for her, she is thrown into the arms of a cold, violent man who makes her life unbearable. A forbidden, chance encounter with a man, and the feelings that ensue, make her begin to question everything she has ever known - and even consider that, maybe, she does not have to choose this life that has been thrust upon her. But she knows that once she makes a drastic decision, there will be no way back into the arms of the Jewish community.

Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.

Never a doubt. Never a mistake. Always for justice. Never for revenge. She's the person you hire when you need something fixed-permanently. With a strict set of criteria, she evaluates every request and chooses only a few. No more than one job per country, per year. She will only step in if it's clear that justice will not be served any other way. Her jobs are completed with skill and precision, and never result in inquiry or police investigation. The Fixer is invisible - and quite deadly.

The situation SEEMS simple
(As posted in GoodReads and to Amazon)
It made me cry :-(. So far, every book by her that I have read has done so. Topic is touching and frustrating, and she introduces it in such a way with such tenderness and concern that the reader cannot help but be moved and become emotionally involved with the situation.
The characters are complex and many sided. Ms. Carner makes a point of treating each one as a real person with real concerns of his or her own. Most of the characters that one would love to hate are revealed to be multidimensional and difficult to write off so easily. Yes, there ARE true villains, but they alone do not define the situation.
On the other hand, there are true heroes: Rachel's parents, Jacqueline, Seth (dam*, I doubt that's the right name! I'm HORRIBLE remembering names, even the important ones…) the legal clerk with whom she falls in love, Erica, etc. The original judge, and even the lawyer, are simply doing their jobs. I don't AGREE with the judge, and I don't like his interpretations… I'm happy to think that he is eventually leaving the bench!
A terrible picture of the legal system in the US is drawn. That a judge and lawyer can take the health (physical and mental) of a child no more seriously than the mostly unsupported arguments of a probable abuser is despicable!
My problem with this book is that, although it seems like everything will go one way, it's really not completed. But overall, it's a wonderful book and evokes thought and consideration about the whole general situation.
