The Fortunate Ones deals with the concept that those within a certain socio-economic strata have rights and privileges that others do not - especially in the political world. And boy have we been privy to that in our nation in the past 6 years... it's terrifying what certain individuals have gotten away with.
In the case of Charlie Boykin, he sees first-hand the influence that power and money have. Having literally seen both sides of the same coin, he has some difficult choices to make when his friend enters politics.
It was a fascinating story with moral dilemmas that really make the reader consider the magnitude of privilege in our country.
