A child's nightmare, an adult's battle for truth.
At 45, Lucky finally feels like she has achieved her dreams— a lovely life with a successful career, a beautiful son, an adoring husband, two dogs, and a house in the ‘burbs.
But when Lucky’s mother and 100-year-old grandfather violently attack her home, it sends her spiraling out of control. Her delicately crafted double life begins to collapse, and she is finally forced to confront decades of terror, abuse, and secrets she has been hiding from everyone—including herself. Lucky breaks the silence of generations, threatening her sanity and the safety of those she so carefully protected.
Torn between family and fear, Licking the Knife unravels the painful memories of a child abused in the name of religion and the adult who fights to escape.
