Even threatened, and even afraid, Lizzie Rydell is a remarkably self-possessed young woman. It's a trait that's not uncommon in her family, like the copper threading through her hair, and a tendency to freckle in the sun: a sort of centeredness, or clarity. A sense of purity and of self, that comes from living a life free from shame.
She says it simply - without apology, and without hesitation.
