Book Review - Black and Blue

This book is about a woman, who suffers from domestic violence, decides she has had enough and takes her son and vanishes.

Fran Benedetto is a nurse who lives in NYC and seems to be happily married to her husband Bobby. In reality, she is a victim of domestic violence. The book describes Fran escaping her situation by going underground and assuming a new identity. She takes her 11 year old son Robert with her and they try to start a new life.

I was able to feel the suspense on every page wondering if or when her husband would catch up with her and had a hard time putting it down until it was finished.

I look forward to reading another one of Anna's novels.
