Summary 
Journalist Rachel Louise Snyder gives context for what we don't know we're seeing. She frames this urgent and immersive account of the scale of domestic violence in our country around key stories that explode the common myths -- that if things were bad enough, victims would just leave; that a violent person cannot become nonviolent; that shelter is an adequate response; and, most insidiously, that violence inside the home is a private matter, sealed from the public sphere and disconnected from other forms of violence. Through the stories of victims, perpetrators, law enforcement, and reform movements from across the country, Snyder explores the real roots of private violence, its far-reaching consequences for society, and what it will take to truly address it.

Summary 
"An award-winning journalist's intimate investigation of the true scope of domestic violence, revealing how the roots of America's most pressing social crises are buried in abuse that happens behind closed doors. We call it domestic violence. We call it private violence. Sometimes we call it intimate terrorism. But whatever we call it, we generally do not believe it has anything at all to do with us, despite the World Health Organization deeming it a 'global epidemic.' In America, domestic violence accounts for 15 percent of all violent crime, and yet it remains locked in silence, even as its tendrils reach unseen into so many of our most pressing national issues, from our economy to our education system, from mass shootings to mass incarceration to #MeToo.

Summary 
"De todos los crímenes por violencia doméstica, un ochenta y cinco por ciento pon perpetrados contra mujeres y niñas. Para la periodista Rachel Louise Snyder, los privilegios masculinos y la masculinidad tóxica son la raíz de un problema que alcanza, según la Organización Mundial de la Salud, las proporciones de una pandemia global. ¿Es el maltratador más poderoso que el sistema? ¿Por qué "soportan" las víctimas la situación de violencia? ¿Son las casas de acogida la solución? ¿Es posible predecir el asesinato? ¿Qué señales pueden alertar del peligro, no solo a la víctima soino también al entorno, a la policía y a todo el sistema? ¿Funcionan los programas de intervención con los maltratadores? ¿Es posible la rehabilitación? Partiendo de un caso que conmocionó a la sociedad estadounidense, el de Michelle y Rocky Mosure y sus hijos, Sin Marcas Visibles responde a estas y otras preguntas en una obra auténtica y vibrante." -- jacket flap
