Title: different but disappointing
Product review: This very different story piqued my interest at the start. Charles Blakey's life seems to be going nowhere, with financial problems mounting up. Then, a strange man (Annisten Bennet) appears and offers Blakey a lot of money to stay for a short time in his basement. The mystery behind Bennet, and Blakey's search for himself through his non-slave American roots impelled me to keep listening to this audio-book. Ultimately, I was not satisfied either with Bennet's secret surfacing not the transformation of Blakey as he deals with Bennet and other issues in his life. This unorthodox story was ultimately neither believable not engaging. Even a good reader could not rescue this somewhat disappointing short novel.
