Here's another perfect example of Malmborg weaving a story that leaves you understanding and nearly accepting of the things people do in desperate times. The title "Red Pickup" doesn't really give anything away, which I approve of because there are a lot of titles out there that don't leave much to the imagination. I will admit that "Red Pickup" felt a little rushed in places, but it was worth it to get to the ending, which is another one of "those" endings that kind of sneak up behind you and punch you in the face when you're not looking...(in a good way. If that is even possible)
I give "Red Pickup" 4 out of 5 stars.
Seriously, download and read Scraping the Bone so that you know what I'm babbling about.
