Wire Mesh Mothers

De: Elizabeth Massie

Narrado por: Kathy Bell Denton

It all started with the best of intentions. Kate McDolen, an elementary school teacher, knew she had to protect one of her students, little 8-year-old Mistie, from parents who were making her life a living hell. So Kate packed her bags, quietly picked up Mistie after school one day, and set off with her toward what she thought would be a new life. How could she know she was driving headlong into a nightmare?

The nightmare began when Tony jumped into the passenger seat of Kate's car, waving a gun. Tony was a dangerous girl, more dangerous than anyone could have dreamed. She didn't admire anything except violence and cruelty, and she had very different plans in mind for Kate and little Mistie. The cross-country trip that followed would turn into a one-way journey to fear, desperation... and madness.

Very disturbing content.

This boom was really good. However, there is a lot of very disturbing content including, child sexual abuse, rape, self mutilation and child death. I wish I had known about those ahead of time. I would have still listened to the book, but I would have been prepared.
