Even Blue Birds Sing

A Battered Mother’s Message to Her Son
by Karen Buyno, as told by Lisa Kobayashi 

Debut Amazon author, Karen Buyno introduces us to “Even Blue Birds Sing”:
Moved by newspaper reports of a family’s tragic plight, a prominent couple donated $50,000 to a Maine Family Crisis Services center. Even Blue Birds Sing recounts the true events behind those media reports, details that were not reported until the publication of this book, events that will cause you to question everything you thought you knew about domestic violence, the protection of children, and justice in America.
Lisa is a mother and the wife of a man who wants to kill her. She escapes through the assistance of an underground railroad of sorts, but what she doesn’t count on is a twist the law takes in declaring her one of America’s Most Wanted. Now she must evade not only the man who wants her dead, but also a justice system intent on sending her to prison.
This is a tale of a mother who sacrifices everything to ensure her son’s happiness. She wants to tell him what happened, if only she could….

I wish this story was fiction. It is so gut wrenching and painful. It is true. Not just for Lisa but for many others.
The author did an amazing job of writing this story. It is clear and unflinching in describing the events that Lisa had to live through even from her early years as a child.
I can’t recommend this book enough, everyone in law enforcement, the justice system and first responders should read this book.
I award 5 stars to “Even Blue Birds Sing”.
