This is a complex story. It kept both my intellectual and emotional faculties fully engaged as I read.

One part that really got my attention was during Rachel's torture. Douglas' uncanny resemblances to factual characters and situations made me wonder where she got her ideas...i.e.,

The resemblance of Uriel to Bush and Cheney during the Bush administration. The resemblance of the Truth Breakers versus Bush's torture boy at the Guantanamo Detection Center, CIA Officer Jose Rodriguez. Because I had recently read the torture unto death U.S. government files at Guantanamo Bay dentition center, and the likeness between fiction and fact, this portion of the story really made an impact.

It isn't a story I want to read again, but I thought it was very well written.
