Wow, what a fantastic finish. McBride does the same thing in Deacon King Kong; he weaves together multiple storylines into a satisfying ending. I never doubt where it’s going, and the characters and settings are brought to life so clearly. And what a message! Equality matters, and justice will be served. Great book!
