Unflinching, compassionate, and gripping, this bold novel evocatively examines the ambiguities wrought by both violence and redemption.

Trade Review
Unflinching, compassionate, and gripping, The Blameless is a gem of a novel by a master storyteller. It challenges us to rethink everything we thought we knew about crime and punishment, guilt and forgiveness. This gorgeous and moving novel of ideas also bears witness to the human potential to completely remake ourselves." - Sharon Harrigan, author of Half

"A suspenseful and beautiful tale of two haunted characters on a collision course. In The Blameless, Ryan Kenedy writes acutely about the arid landscape, the hard labor, the unceasing economic pressures—and the complex, tangled history of his dual protagonists. With utmost precision, he chronicles lives in poignant disarray. He has crafted an immersive and aching narrative of guilt, retribution, and restoration." - Stephen Schottenfeld, author of This Room Is Made of Noise
