I picked up a copy of this book because it piqued my interest. Sadly, this book did not turn out to be interesting. I was not impressed by any of the characters in the book. In fact, I found most of them to get on my nerves. Also there was very little action taking place in the story. After about reading a third of the way into the book, I jumped forward to the last three chapters to see how the story ended and the reason for the man holding up the hospital and staff hostage. Once I learned the reason, I would have felt sorry for the man but he was not caring in one way or another so he got no sympathy from me.

There was nothing new about this story that I have not read before. I was just hoping with the picture of the dog on the front cover and the words "This gun is loaded" that this book were have been good. Also, it had nothing to do with the fact that this book was translated.
