I think I am part bear. All I want to do this time of year is sleep.

With any luck I will wake up at some point in the not too distant future and get around to reviewing this book myself.

Mike Palecek has written before about small-town Iowa, about the people of America, about truth, corruption and lies. He has written about brave individuals who are driven to make a difference. He has created characters who work within a system they hate, who later step outside that system and find doors everywhere are slammed in their faces.
