The fact that author Cheryl Rainfield is a former cutter and an abuse survivor makes Scars even more chilling than it would have been otherwise. Kendra is a victim of sexual abuse but she has repressed her memory of her abuser. She does remember him telling her that he will kill her if she ever tells what happened. He is now stalking her as well, occasionally dropping off little ‘presents’.
Kendra releases some of the emotion through cutting,a dangerous means of easing the emotional pain. Readers will understand her actions while, at the same time, get chills at the thought of her self-mutilation. Scars is a gripping story, full of emotion. Scars (and Kendra) are winners.
