Cookie cutter characters, unbelievably anticlimactic ending, plot was kind of a drag that relied heavily on a forked storyline ping-ponging the past and the present. Use of race for plot points was sloppy and undermined the argument trying to be made.

Audiobook notes: narrator was bland, brought neither life or excitement to any of these characters. Questionable accents attempted for some of the ethnic characters.
