À quatorze ans, Turtle Alveston arpente les bois de la côte nord de la Californie avec un fusil et un pistolet pour seuls compagnons.

Mais si le monde extérieur s'ouvre à elle dans toute son immensité, son univers familial est étroit et menaçant : Turtle a grandi seule, sous la coupe d'un père charismatique et abusif.

So, I signed up for a dating app and agreed to meet with the first guy that messaged me. Now here I am, at the bar. Only it’s not my date that just sat down in the chair across from me. It’s his dad.
