Produktbeschreibung
When Claire reflects on her life now in the opening chapter, she mentions that her right leg is in a brace. Readers are left wondering what happened. Why is she grateful to be able to walk only a few steps? The answer is gradually revealed over the course of the memoir as Claire writes about her equestrian life and the years following its sudden end on September 13, 1997. While she chronicles her past, her story weaves into and out of the now. Although Claire feels that she will never completely let go of the successes-or of the crushing disappointments-that accentuated her time in the equestrian world, this memoir is about so much more. It's about being driven to pursue a goal. It's about a life-changing loss. It's about arduous recovery. It's about a life evolving into something completely unexpected. A compelling story of determination, resilience, and persistence in the face of tremendous loss, this memoir is bound to be inspiring, particularly for the many individuals who are forced to confront life-altering challenges.

Autorenporträt
Claire Smith is a debut memoirist whose work explores the complexities of family, identity, and the hidden truths that shape our lives. Born and raised in a quiet suburban town in the early 1980s, Claire spent her childhood surrounded by a world that appeared idyllic on the surface but was shadowed by secrets she would later uncover. With a talent for weaving vivid imagery and deep emotional resonance into her writing, Claire draws readers into her journey of discovery, resilience, and self-reclamation.Her first memoir, my father's last victim, is a poignant reflection on the fragility of perfection and the courage it takes to confront the past. Inspired by her personal experiences, Claire's work captures both the beauty and the pain of growing up in a family defined by both love and mystery. When she's not writing, Claire enjoys exploring forgotten attics, collecting vintage photographs, and spending time with her two dogs, Milo and Daisy.
