This is an excellent book that will change everything. Both your personal and professional lives will improve. When your trust boundaries melt away and expand, new horizons open up. In his book, Stephen M. R. Covey (the son of Stephen M. Covey) describes how to build trust based relationships and tells us why they are so necessary. I recommend this book to all of my friends and family. Now, only if I could buy a copy of everyone at my work.

Red Dust pulls you into an intense drama of intimacy between the jailer and the jailed. Set in South Africa after the downfall of apartheid, it gives a look at the aftereffects of a vicious reign of terror. Blacks and whites are presented with equal strengths and weaknesses. Slovo's tale pulls you through courtroom drama to the bittersweet ending.

To date, this has been my favorite of Coomer's. And I have read them all. Reading a Pocketful of Names has been liking eating a box of good chocolates, right down to the last line. You live with the characters on their island off the coast of Maine. You can hear the water lapping on the shore. It is a very satisfying read.
