Very well done, excellent book, I will gladly recommend Phil Williams as an author worth following.” - Les ★★★★★“When injustice is blatantly obvious right before you, would you risk your own safety for a stranger? As with everything I've read from this author, what is delivered is not just an entertaining, satisfying tale but a look beneath the surface of our society. If you can finish one of his books without questions and an underlying feeling of disquiet, I think you have missed the whole story.Often when I start one of his books I wonder how all the various storylines and characters can possibly blend into one riveting novel. But they always do, quite beautifully. If haven't met Phil M. Williams yet, now is absolutely the best time.” – Saundra Wright ★★★★★“Phil M. Williams has become my favorite author and this book continues his great writing style. At first I thought I might not like the book as it seemed like it was another woke book, however reading so many of Williams books already told me to stick with the book. I am so thankful that I did as it became a story of the way things should go in America.” – Jeff Launiere ★★★★★
