Hit and Run

A story about forgiveness and restitution. It is about the lives of a group of people with different challenges, brought together by a terrible incident that changed the lives of all concerned. They each had their own challenges that they either had to experience or overcome. A number of spiritual concepts woven into the daily lives of people made it a very touching story, without ever given the idea of preaching. We all have seen or known the characters, they are your neighbour, a friend or family member, someone you wish you knew and a few you are glad you have never met.

It is clear that the book is written from a place deep inside a wise soul with a lot of life experience.

It was very clever to have the old woman drawing the scene in the first chapter, to bring the reader right into the action, to set the theme with the criminal in her dream.

This books comes at a very appropriate time. It could give a lot of people food for thought regarding forgiveness and a way forward, after traumatic experiences and to teach us that we are all damaged in a way, but with love and compassion as an example, we are able to change our destination.

A book well written and it kept my attention right to the end. I read it slowly, did not want to miss subtle detail. My only objection would be too many characters who appeared towards the end.
