Ratings and reviews

Has all the hallmarks of a traci book. Well ceafted characters and a wonderfully twisting plot. Its also the seceret wish for that distant relatives inherantace to change the world we know.

I have always really enjoyed this book. A nice simple story with some romance and action.

Great story and characters. It would also make for a good movie.
