Facing the Wind by Julie Salamon, Sandra Burr
In 1978, lawyer Bob Rowe brutally murdered his wife and three children. After several years in an institution for the criminally insane, Rowe was released, and he remarried and had a daughter. His second wife, Colleen, was aware of his terrible past, but loved and trusted him nonetheless. Meanwhile, friends of Rowe's deceased first wife were incredulous and angry that Rowe had found a new life. In this account, New York Times journalist Julie Salamon documents Colleen's attempts to make peace with the friends of Rowe's first wife after Bob's death in 1997. In the process, Salamon creates a provocative exploration of the boundaries of forgiveness.
