Boldly written and entirely unforgettable, this book marks the emergence of an author to watch." --<i>Hartford Books Examiner</i> <p/>"The ways in which Strecker handles the plot threads and spins a resolution are beautifully handled and contain a few surprises... There are answers that will surprise readers who might not even have known there were questions." --<i>The Day</i> <p/>"Susan Strecker writes with unflinching honesty about the dynamics of a family in crisis, and the fallout of a single rash act. In her beautifully rendered debut novel, she proves that while there are no easy answers, there can be forgiveness and redemption. This is rewarding, up-all-night reading at its best." --Susan Wiggs, #1 New York Times bestselling author <p/>"Susan Strecker's debut, <i>Night Blindness</i>, is engrossing, fast-paced, and filled with layers of emotion as Jensen Reilly finds unconditional love in the aftermath of more than a decade of complex grief and secrets. Strecker's honesty about family relationships, and her expert hand at revealing what befalls the Reilly family, had me turning the pages late into the night. <i>Night Blindness</i> is a powerful story of loss and renewal." --<i>Amy Sue Nathan, author of The Glass Wives</i> <p/>"A beautiful debut filled with perfectly drawn characters, the visceral feel of a New England summer, and a long-buried family secret.
