This book was absolutely amazing to me. I related to it in so many ways. First this was a dual time book. WWII and now. I have heard so many of the experiences that my mother had in WWII in Germany and Poland that so well related exactly to this book. That the author has written about her ancestral home is a real connection for me and also the fact that the current day character Mckenna uses genealogical research methodology to find and unlock the secrets to their family's past is also amazing to me as that is my profession. So this book held my attention from page one throughout the entire book. It was a sad story as WWII stories usually are but dealt with a different cultural group of people called the Lemkos. The book will hold your attention till the very end. It was THAT good! I highly recommend this book and am so happy that I read it myself! It gives me such an understanding of the hardships in life and to appreciate all we have.
I received an ARC copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
