From Publishers Weekly In Morris's "strong and painful" first novel， Aubrey Wallace， a simple， good-hearted laborer on a Vermont road crew， falls for Dotty--cute， tarty， amoral and utterly freaked-out--who lures him away from his family to a wandering， criminal half-life on the road， with a kidnapped child in tow. "The story drives inexorably to its cynical and wrenching climax， fueled on booze， drugs and human misery，" noted PW. Copyright 1989 Reed Business Information， Inc. From Library Journal For five years， a shy， backward man travels the country with a wild young woman and a kidnapped child， living by stealing and by selling stolen goods. Helpless Aubrey Wallace does not have the courage or the know-how to escape the situation in which he is trapped with the sexually abused Dotty Johnson， who has brutally killed her father and stolen 18-month-old Canny. Aubrey， attached to Canny， shows her as much love and care as he can， letting Dotty call all the shots. The tragedy in this bizarre， intriguing first novel is a child's exposure， in her most formative and impressionable years， to a life of violence. But for Canny there is hope: she could be returned to her natural parents. For Aubrey and Dotty， there is no hope left. Jeris Cassel， Rutgers Univ.
