"That Davis has earned the trust of his sometimes breathtakingly forthcoming interviewees is clear, but he can be ponderous and frustratingly hazy about timelines. Still, this fascinating, haunting story of people caught up in a bampot dictator’s landgrab feels grimly pertinent for today’s geopolitical situation."
