Cage of Stars by Jacquelyn Mitchard

Twelve-year-old Veronica Swan's idyllic life in a close-knit Mormon community is shattered when her two younger sisters are brutally murdered. Although her parents find the strength to forgive the deranged killer, Scott Early, Veronica cannot do the same. Years later, she sets out alone to avenge her sisters' deaths, dropping her identity and severing ties in the process. But as she closes in on Early, Veronica will discover the true meaning of sin and compassion...before she makes a decision that will change her and her family forever. With a rare grace and piercing vision of people in turmoil, Jacquelyn Mitchard once again demonstrates her mastery of both suspense and complex human emotions as she explore the often surprising, mysterious acts that give full meaning to our lives.

This is the break-out read of the year' -- Karin Slaughter 'Cage of Stars is vintage Mitchard' -- Jane Hamilton 'A first-rate storyteller' -- Newsweek 'Jacquelyn Mitchard renders her characters flawlessly, endowing them with a humanity that is both accessibly grounded and astonishingly deep' -- Booklist
