''The Mercy Seat'' is a story that stays with the reader long after the final page. The ending is left ambiguous; a compelling tool in itself as it hands power to us, as readers, to fill in the blanks about what happens next for the characters that we have bonded with over the course of the book. How the story pans out in our own minds allows for moments of self-reflection and perhaps reveals something about our own views and choices. Many thanks to the publishers for my review copy.
The themes of this story will draw obvious comparisons with the classic [[To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee]], a lesson of humanity and compassion in the face of ignorance and prejudice. You might also like [[Equator by Antonin Varenne and Sam Taylor (translator)]].
