Review: change of pace Carlson
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 12 28, 2012
Having just finished the extremely pleasant "Whispering Pines" series prior to Christmas, this novel demanded an emotional and mental investment which ran counter to all the peaceful carols on my Pandora station... That being said, it was a very good book with some hard truths in it. The fifth star was withheld because of perceived southern bias. As a born and bred Yankee married to a Navy man and settling 25 years ago in Georgia, I've heard racism expressed by people from all around this country. Thank you for at least acknowledging that the Pacific NW is not immune. Thank you also for not shying away from a tough issue.
