Opened with such a shocking happening that one just HAS to go on! She sure made her argument but while I couldn't put this book down, I also couldn't believe any judge would hold his position in light of everything he heard! A horrible situation that must be the worst for the victims and those that love them. So well/written and frankly told!Product details

Puppet Child (Audible Audio Edition) Talia Carner Dina Pearlman Audible Studios Books Reviews
I heard an interview with Talia Carner and became interested in her books. She tackles tough social problems in a very realistic way. Her characters are very real people, not one-dimensional stereotypes. I cared about this family deeply.
The level of character development by the author was to as finely evolved in this story as it was in Jerusalem Maiden, which is why I chose this book. The opening of the story is quite powerful and it is a difficult emotional plot. Unfortunately all too real today and I applaud the author for tackling it.
Excellent book - excellent author!
Kudo's to Talia Carner for writing such a heart wrenching book about a very "taboo" subject, and the horrible failure in our justice system for not acknowledging that somehow the innocents in this crime have more to prove than the guilty party.

I agree that this was most definitely a powerful and moving book. However, just after new twists are revealed the book ends! And with a resounding THE END to boot! Does Ellie ever make it home? What happens to the mentally frail, ignorant, vengeful Josie? What repurcussions does Wes have for his disgusting actions?
An excellent read but i wanted more (
heart-breaking, but a necessary book regarding dark issues and the ineptitude of the legal system in dealing with children. I salute family law attorneys and advocates for children!
I took this book with me on vacation. I had planned to spend my time walking the beach, swimming and body-surfing; instead, I sat on a lounge chair with my face buried in Puppet Child. It is one very difficult book to put down. The urgency of the story and the depths of the injustice it profiles are compelling. I found some of the coincidences a bit too easy, but the story and its treatment easily overrode this minor complaint.
Although the subject matter--child abuse, and the subsequent abuse of the mother by the social services and courts--is grim, the writing in the book is hopeful, and the story leans heavily on the wonder of positive relationships. I found that I was not left depressed, but indignant--and eager to speak out against all that is wrong in our skewed justice system.
I live in a state where, not long ago, a judge chided a battered woman for whining about her fate and returned her to her spouse; shortly thereafter, she was murdered. The sort of things depicted in Puppet Child do happen--repeatedly. Kudos to Carner for having the courage to write so compellingly about judicial injustice, and for infuriating us that it exists.
