Once you get the character's lives straight and how they are all connected, the story is intriguing and has great emotional depth. When a young boy living in Morocco shoots his father's new rifle at a tour bus just to see how far it'll shoot, he wounds an American woman and sets up a whirlwind of tragic circumstances made worse by many good people making poor decisions. Each culture is unique, yet the realistic portrait of human failures connects them as human. I like the way the story shows how easily innocent accidents can be blown out of proportion and how a life can change in a second.Chrissy K. McVay - Author
