DNF. (due to verbal and physical abuse of a child.)
This book started out ok, but the villains were into physical abuse of kids and wives and I did not enjoy reading about that.
I stopped reading when I got to the part of the sister-in-law verbally abusing a 3-year old to clean the house and do the dishes, etc. It was pathetic to me and I didn't want to read/imagine it anymore... so I skipped to the end to see how it wrapped up and that was enough.
