I am in agreement with another reviewer that this book is not the most uplifting. It is narrated by Helena, the deceased wife of the main character, who is a lawyer just like the author. Not more than a few pages can be read without the reminder that she is dead and speaking from the "other side". Meanwhile, her major concerns are for her animals that she left behind and how her grieving husband relates to them. To really get to the crux of the plot - a trial to free a chimpanzee - takes more than 200 pages. OK for a first attempt...maybe his next book will be better. D.
