This is not a book about Bonobos - is also about war. Interesting read....I still don't believe we come from apes but interesting how different yet how alike we are. Well written.

I was prompted to read this book after watching some tv shows and attending a movie screening about the missing in Alaska.

Very well written; sometimes hard to keep up where in North America you are.

Very eye opening about the missing people issue we have. Not just with homeless but with everyday people going out for a walk and never returning. Heartbreaking for the families.

We need more resources for this problem-a better database, more boots on the ground - but this all takes money.

Well worth the read!

This is a great book! I was reading it as to know if it would be appropriate for my granddaughter (age 9). I've been watching the Heartland Series on GMC and it's good to know that they are following the storyline in the book almost exactly.

I look forward to seeing what my granddaughter has to say about this book. I've already ordered book 2

Father Tim is on the road to where he grew up. What shaped him into the man he is today. Great story and shows us that sometimes things aren't as how we remember them or that we didn't know the whole story as a child.
