Ratings and reviews

The story is good,it piqued my interest from the very start,few unexpected twists ,i keep on reading until i finished it ..see that's a good book right,i like when i read a book that play with my emotions which by the way lack in this book.The author should dive into the personality and elaborated futher the anguish of the children esp Ruth,Mary even Rachel..at least they should having nightmares.. And what happened to Applewhite.kind of dissatisfied and disappointing..

A truly action-filled story that holds on to essential good in people despite the terrible circumstances they are in. Decent language, good values, insight of really good soldiers, it's a treasure!

Good read. Started reading because it was free and I was bored but quickly got sucked in by the plot and character development. I'll buy more of this author's books
