60's coming of age story plumbing the potential for evil in each of us. During a back-packing visit to Dachau concentration camp museum in 1969 Jared Clarkson is transported to 1943 where he learns a secret that explains a lifetime of prisoner dreams.
I like the psychological aspects...daring subject matter. Writer ambitiously explored deep internal conflicts of main character. Opening chapter set-up is intriguing. Prose clean and clear. Delves deeply into shadow we all repress.
