Detective P.T. Marsh was a rising star on the police force of Mason Falls, Georgia - until his wife and young son died in an accident. Since that night, he's lost the ability to see the line between smart moves and disastrous decisions. Such as when he agrees to help out a woman by confronting her abusive boyfriend. When the next morning he gets called to the scene of his newest murder case, he is stunned to arrive at the house of the very man he beat up the night before. He could swear the guy was alive when he left, but can he be sure?

An audible page turner

A couple of little loose ends but overall a really enjoyable book. Jon Lindstrom, who narrated kept the pace moving. Well worth a listen, I think, better than a read.

Our current climate of partisan fury is not new, and in The Soul of America Meacham shows us how what Abraham Lincoln called the “better angels of our nature” have repeatedly won the day. Painting surprising portraits of Lincoln and other presidents, including Ulysses S. Grant, Theodore Roosevelt, and LBJ, and illuminating the courage of influential citizen activists and civil rights pioneers, Meacham brings vividly to life turning points in American history. Each of these dramatic hours have been shaped by the contest to lead the country to look forward rather than back.

Meacham the historian

John is inspiring with his ability to combine events and words of our presidents. The epilogue is most enjoyable. He quotes some of the most notable phrases and speeches our US Presidents have spoken. Those words and phrases explain what America is about.

Compared to other industrialized nations, the United States is losing ground across nearly every indicator of social health. Its race problem, argues Eduardo Porter, is largely to blame. In American Poison, the New York Times veteran shows how racial animus has stunted the development of nearly every institution crucial for a healthy society, including organized labor, public education, and the social safety net. The consequences are profound and are only growing graver with time.

How Racial segregation has been kept alive through abjucation.
Revisado: 08-17-20
I was born and spent 18 years of my life in the south, Alabama and Virginia. I believe my parents and grand parents were bigots. I broke the bigot chain. I try to not see color and I judge people by their character. I’m anti-racist but I don’t participate in protests. However after reading American Poison and reading how blacks have been marginalized through national, state and local legislation I was incensed by the unfairness that has been unleashed on the black community. This is a must read book. It is captivating and interesting read. American Poison has given me new insights into racism in America.
