Nunn once again gives us a very revealing glimpse into South African life under the ruling National Party's segregation laws. I thought the first book in the series, A Beautiful Place to Die, was excellent. Unfortunately this second book was a struggle to read due to the inclusion of too much from the previous book and an absolutely glacial pace. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement; however, because of that first book, I will continue with the series.

Tried my best to get through this one but just couldn't--names are too hard to try to remember who is who and same for places, taking place in South Africa (which I wasn't aware when I got it) makes it difficult to stick with it and the characters just didn't connect so I gave up.
