This book is incredible, a true masterpiece. I found myself literally on the edge of my seat, unsure of what would happen next or how the story would progress. There is power in storytelling, in who the teller is, and how they tell it. This book gives us a glimpse into the story less frequently told, by a teller who is rarely heard from.
