The Jungle is a decent enough story about Milton's effort to find an Eritrean illegal immigrant who has been kidnapped and sold to human traffickers. Once again, Milton is making amends, step number nine in the AA twelve step process, by providing significant help to a complete stranger.
In reading the book, I often had the impression that Dawson was either being somewhat lazy or using a less talented writer to flesh out his plot. The prose was frequently simplistic and repetitious, subject, predicate, subject predicate.
The story, however, was interesting enough that I stayed engaged and enjoyed it. The characters, both those from previous stories and new ones, were interesting and pretty well fleshed out - this may have been the best element of the book.
If you've read and enjoyed previous John Milton books, as I have, you will probably enjoy this one as well. If you haven't you might start with the first book in the series.
