Blurb:
"I was born in the cracks and raised in darkness. My breath, my blood, my tears, they're all black. Even my heart is black."
"It watered me, nourished me, destroyed me, and then made me who I am."
"You talk to me about empathy? Sorry, I don't have any."
Reader's Guide:
* The story's central theme is opposing violence. The heroine is no saint.
* A healing story, with no romantic pairing.
That's all.
