I greatly anticipated receiving and reading this book. Once I started, I couldn't put it down until I found out how it ended. I definitely was not disappointed; it kept my undivided attention and interest wondering what would happen on the next page. There were certainly surprises along the way. Ron Wilk unravels a mystery which never lets up. Wilk is an expert in describing a situation in words to paint a very clear picture of what is happening. I highly recommend this book - it really helps you think outside the box at the possibilities.
