Rating: 5/5

This book should be required reading! A very powerful novel that deals with a topical issue. As the book progressed I felt the anger rising more and more, therefore a real eye-opener for me. 

Despite being a translation, the book is an easy read and not hard to follow which can be a hit or miss with translated books and this one is clearly a hit!
