A gripping historical novel set at the end of World War Two. With a fascinating historical setting...and a crisp, simple writing style...I think most older teenagers will get a lot from this book, particularly if they are a person of faith. All in all, a very enjoyable book. Highly recommended! -- A 'Wishing Shelf' Book Review
