Helpful Score: 1
I was blown away by this book. On the surface, it's a fairly simple story of a prosperous modern professional UK couple's being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and coming face to face with in-country violence in Nigeria.
More deeply, it is a study of the interplay of emotions that the characters whose lives intersect feel. It is very well written and reads easily, and I could not wait to finish it. A book to make you really think hard about your values, but it leads you to do that entertainingly and gently. IMHO, the very best of current fiction.
