CBC Showcase: Fiction on the Edge
A provocative, richly layered, and utterly compelling novel that asks the unanswerable: what is truth, and what does it mean to be human?
by Kathleen Jeffrie Johnson
"Loving the hunt, the chase, the pounce and the strike. Animal justice: ruthless and swift. And totally satisfying."
In their chaotic, human world, the one thing that held the brother and sister together was their ability to change from human to animal, and back. Or could they? Was that a lie that would tear them part? A Fast and Brutal Wing asks the unanswerable: What is truth and what does it mean to be human? Another "riveting" (Kirkus, starred review) and "provocative" tale (Booklist) by the author of Target and The Parallel Universe of Liars.
