Reviews
On Aug 12 2007, Hazelwood_Booksellers said:
In Helen Yglesias' fourth work, Sweetsir, she catapults her readers into the center of a disastrously violent and abusive marriage in her edge-of-your-seat, heart-stopping portrayal of Sally and Morgan Sweetsir. She lays bare the darkest side of human relationships between a man and a woman. One that ultimately leads to Morgan's death and Sally's murder trail. Will the jury be persuaded that spouse abuse warrants murder? Will the reader? This tightly written, and taughtly felt, drama is Ms. Yglesias at her best. The story will haunt the reader long after the book is closed and slipped back upon the shelf.
