As most stories are about this horrible time in history its a great but sad fiction about what happened to the ppl on both sides and everything in between. I loved it, however the time jumping back and forth was confusing to me and i lost track on when i was in the story even tho i knew it was a chapter meant to be from future in. It could have been set up better on these parts. But its a great book, one of the better of its kind!
