Dramatic, Interesting, Insightful
Brings a important subject to the table



It is an easy read, but we never really get to know the main characters.They are not fleshed out.

The time frame seems to be off about ten years.

A REAL STUDY OF REAL LIFE

This is a very good book. WE had a wonderful discussion at our book club about this book and its author. Gave me an excellent insight into human nature during stressful times that sounds true to me and what I know about human reactions.
