About this title

From the Author:

Wow! I loved this book. However, it is difficult to say that you have enjoyed a story that is so painful & true. I'm thankful to the writer for opening our "Eye" to things that are never spoken about. I am Catholic (raised Baptist), & it was hard to know the history as it happened. These are things I never knew that Jews endured...& survived. I don't know how their faith survived. This writer does so much research & incorporates the history lesson so seamlessly into the novel. You feel the characters' pain. You really care about them. What more could you want from a book? Beautifully written.
