I loved the story line and the character; however, this particular story (and indeed the series at large) has no ending. Very irritating "end" to a good story. ( ) This book is disturbing both because of its complete lack of closure as well as the horrible things that happen to animals. So, it's basically just like the first Andi Oliver book. Andi has graduated from saving animals from leg traps, canned hunts and dogfights to agribusiness and slaughterhouses. She's also still searching for her missing memory, but this book focuses a lot more on the former than the latter, which is unfortunate. I want to read about what happened to Andi to make her have amnesia, not pigs being drug around by their ears. Grimes writing is still fantastic: vivid, genuine and eloquent, which makes the scenes in the slaughterhouse more disturbing, but also allows the reader to appreciate the beauty of the North Dakota scenery. Both of Grimes' young female characters, Andi and Emma (Hotel Paradise), put themselves in situations that could be dangerous and are a lot more trusting of strange men than I would be, but Grimes allows more bad things to happen to Andi than she ever did to Emma. This is more realistic, but, again, disturbing to read about. Really, though, most of all, I'd just like some closure. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

Young Andi Oliver is an amnesiac and drifter who awoke in a Santa Fe bed and breakfast with a man's belongings tossed about the room. Adopting a name from the initials on her backpack, Andi moves from one waitress job to the next, from Idaho to North Dakota, until she takes a job at Klavan's, a massive pigfarming facility that specializes in the dark art of modern livestock management. As Andi begins to uncover the truth about Klavan's and a slaughterhouse called Big Sun, two men are on her trail, one a gunman hired to kill her, another who has followed her across three states demanding something from her forgotten past.--From publisher description.
