Breaking Gentle

From Publishers Weekly Hale and Diana Caldwell lead outwardly enviable lives in the Texas hill country but secretly face shortcomings in marriage and as parents. According to PW , "There are good sketches of minor characters, lifelike dialogue and a gripping conclusion--but the reader's interest is seized too late, and the final drama does not substitute for lack of depth, coherence or a commanding voice."
