Elizabeth Ross , single  mom  and kindergarten teacher experienced the worst thing that could happen at school...a shooting killing several students and teachers. Thanks to her smart thinking she had not one casuality in her class. Her son, however was not as lucky. He stubstained life long injuries. Next is the onslaught of media coverag  and politicians with their prayers but not once addressing the real issue-guns. Sick and fed up of the same unempathetic apologies and rhetoric to buy more guns, Elizabeth sets out to change the narrative.

This is a book that I want to recommend but only if you think you can handle it. I, having no children of my own, had to take breaks. I can only imagine reading this a  mom.
Elizabeth is a hero, mother, and vigilante. If you want to read a story about a pissed off mom out for vengeance, you'll like this book, but again, take your time if you need to.
