South of Eden

I found Murray's latest work to be compelling. A bit confusing though. I seemed to loose Vivian Cross in the presence of her own fear. Or was it something real? The facts surrounding the time and location were thought provoking, and left me wondering what else might have been drawn into the area to develop it's sense of respect among it's citizens. Many bad people were in charge, and only through participation in like evil did there seem to be a way to rise above it. Couldn't set it down for long though.
