Close to the Soul

Through grit and grace, Carolyn Fandel survives being raped by someone she knows and trusts. She will not accept defeat -- even when confronted by her rapist a second time. Instead, she uses her tragedy to help hundreds of others, some of whom she will never meet. Set in the era of the Vietnam War and the new feminism, this book will have you crying and cheering for Carolyn as she navigates the challenges of life after sexual assault.
