When she learns the truth about Kiran's past, she feels compelled to seek justice--even if it means challenging a powerful and dangerous man. if i tell you the truth that i've dug from the hardened depths of this shrapnel-filled dirt with these aching, bloody hands would you believe me? would you still love me? |
