This is a gritty, slow burn story following Laura taking on Emilio's case. However, this goes awry and the case becomes more than an asylum case.

Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten.Extreme Vetting by Roxana Arama is both an excellent thriller and an insightful glimpse at our (completely messed up) immigration system from a human rather than a statistical or ideological perspective.
I think Arama found a nice middle ground of presenting the plight of many immigrants, regardless of status, while keeping the plot going at a crisp pace. At the same time that readers are becoming invested in the individual characters they are also understanding those same individual obstacles as obstacles (often made up by the government to maintain a white supremacist society) that are being forced on large groups of hard-working people. These are human beings first, not some nationality, ethnicity, or religion.
I would recommend this to readers who like compelling stories that can also make them see actual issues from, perhaps, a new perspective.
