This was an honest and compelling story about female nurse volunteers in Vietnam. The horrors and redemptions. Although the unfolding of the story was somewhat predictable in places, ( the surprises not so surprising) the historical accuracy was appreciated. For lovers of historical fiction, there is little focused on Vietnam and this was really an important story to bring to the forefront. I was captivated from the start and throughout the story. Well done.

An engaging and suspenseful read. The author presents plausible scenarios of what the world could become after a catastrophe. It’s a wake up call for preparedness.

I enjoyed the story based on actual events. If not based on actual events it would seem far fetched. I enjoyed the weaving in of the history of the times. I found the heroines daily struggles a bit repetitive.

A soap opera

Although the end was satisfying, it was a long and repetitive soap opera to get there. If you enjoy a tawdry who is sleeping with who’s best friend, this is for you. The story is set in Portugal which would have been nice but there was nothing in the story that described the country, culture history or people. That was disappointing.
