Aaron is enjoying catching up with friends at his high school reunion when Stephanie gets the call that her husband, a political activist, is murdered. The plot (and sub-plots) move along well, and I do like the characters. Unfortunately, the author is too obvious with his political leanings and he pays no attention to the passage of times. (Then again, I want to live in a world where every day is Saturday.)

Political, but also enjoyable
As someone who does not live in the US, and without access to cable, I don't get to watch The Daily Show with Trevor Noah. I am insanely grateful for this podcast. Trevor Noah came to my attention some time ago as a guest on a panel show some time ago, I find him a refreshing person to listen to. The podcast is predominantly focussed on US politics, but I get to hear about things that don't necessarily make it into UK news.

"If anyone is at all interested in a book about California, what makes California unique and special, and the history of it, the political history of it and all the little details, [this is] a good book to have."

"The notions we have in the United States and in other countries that function to a better or lesser degree as nation states with variations of democratic, representative government as their political systems would not exist without Plato’s work."
