From the author of Book of the Little Axe, nominated for the Hurston/Wright Legacy Award, a riveting literary novel with the sharp edges of a thriller about the abuses of history and the costs of revenge, set between Washington, DC, and Johannesburg, South Africa
Prudence Wright seems to have
it a loving husband, Davis; a spacious home in Washington, DC; and the
past glories of a successful career at McKinsey, which now enables her to
dedicate her days to her autistic son Roland. When she and Davis head out for
dinner with one of Davis’s new colleagues on a stormy summer evening filled
with startling and unwelcome interruptions, Prudence has little reason to think
that certain details of her history might arise sometime between cocktails and
the appetizer course.
Yet when Davis’s colleague turns out to
be Matshediso, a man from Prudence’s past, she is transported back to the
formative months she spent as a law student in South Africa in 1996. As an
intern at a Johannesburg law firm, Prudence attended sessions of the Truth and
Reconciliation hearings, which uncovered the many horrors and human rights
abuses of the Apartheid state, and which fundamentally shaped her sense of
righteousness and justice. But Prudence experienced personal horrors in South
Africa as well, ones she long resolved to keep carefully hidden and ones which
Matshediso threatens now to expose. When Matshediso finally reveals the real
reason behind his sudden reappearance, he will force Prudence to examine her
most deeply held beliefs and to excavate inner reserves of resilience and
strength.

Great for the price
They are very nice quality, but the 3ml are a little tight on the vial. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but something to note. The 10ml are a little lose on 10ml, but work great on 30ml hospira bac water

Love this brand!
Flavor Name: Mixed, Size: 4 Count (10 oz)
My standard poodle loves these but I cut them up into more manageable sizes. This has become my new “go to” brand.
