So you get taken in by some gripping corporate-thriller, which, in itself, is well made enough and intelligent enough that the unoriginal Davida vs. Goliath plot line doesn't bug you, that you hope (even as a lefty) it won't be some childish "big bad demons run evil company" scenario, and it turns out it both is and isn't that. Forgiving the relatively useless and overwrought melodramatic subplots involving little kids and their adverse reaction to loss (boring, pointless, and all too common,) you stick through the thing for the grand reveal.
Oy Vey.
Imagine a giant pharma concern has killed 20+ children on a single, isolated site in a relatively short time: despite more or less unlimited resources, they leave the skeletons of a score of children in the the ground, on site. Leaving aside the obvious reality (they have the resources to just remove them all under cover of night and dump them far into the ocean,) how could they possibly NOT do this after 3 separate sets of unconnected people show interest in the land and the case? Why wait for evidence to be found?
I wouldn't bother with this if the rest of the writing weren't at least competent. But wouldn't a man with De Facto limitless resources use them to make it all go away?
