My gift to you: I thought I would give you a gift for the holidays! Here is an excerpt from "The Lies Told in the Dark"

"...In a sudden shake, I wake him. When he sees me, I ball up my hand into a fist and punch him in the face. "Okay, I deserved that," Elias says. I punch him again, harder this time, "And that, too," he said. When I went to do it a third time, he caught my fist. I was shocked because he could never do that before. He whispered, "stop hitting me for five seconds and we could talk this over like men. Away from your sleeping daughter."..."
