A Spark of Light

All I can say is WOW. I stayed up all night to finish reading this book. Although this is a work of fiction, the events described in the book could happen in this political climate. It is a hostage situation at an abortion clinic in Mississippi. When Hugh the police negotiator arrives on the scene, he discovers his daughter Wren and his sister Bex are hostages. He should have removed himself from the case.

The book begins at 5pm and goes backwards in time for one day. The story is written in first person from different points of view. The story is fast paced, and the characters are well developed. The author did a fabulous job researching for this book especially the information on self-managed abortions. As the reader moves through the story, we learn a little bit more about each character. If you are pro-choice, you will appreciate this book.
