Facing perils and overcoming them, Fielding's protagonists have proven immensely popular in the author's native Canada, in the United States, and in Europe. What separates her challenged heroines from true-life people is the level of terror they ultimately face, sometimes including desperate killers or abusers run amok. Fielding makes family trauma her territory as she explores divorce, child abductions, misguided romances, teen rebellion, and the pressures facing working mothers.
