Claudia Matthew\'s abuser was not a stranger, a boyfriend, or a husband.
Will she survive? Will she find hope?.
Plummeting off a cliff on to the rocky and frozen Kettle River, they journey together into a den of transformation.

He was her father-the one person who should unconditionally protect and love her.
