so-soThis was a crime thriller novel that I picked up at a hostel I recently stayed at in Switzerland - I don‘t usually go for this kind of book but it was the only English one there! It was an easy read and entertaining following all the different characters. I felt like there were a couple of storyline‘s that didn‘t loop up as nicely as I would have expected but overall not a bad read.
pickI read this book in 2 days. It was captivating and incredibly moving. The human spirit is so strong and even under conditions that are impossible to imagine, the mind can find peace. Amanda and Nigel went through a horrific kidnapping and this story describes Amanda‘s experiences which brought me to tears on several occasions. The forgiveness and compassion she showed was truly inspiring and I will reflect back on this story in my day to day life.

pickThis book was emotional, informative, captivating and beautifully written. I finished it in tears and with a new appreciation for what people endured during World War 2.
The women in this book are full of grit, love, passion and bravery. These pages capture a side of the war we often don‘t hear about. This is a must read to remind ourselves of the suffering people went through to give us the lives of freedom we live today.
