This is an excellent well written book that is a true account. Andy Andrews is a very good story teller. Not only is the book an enjoyable read, it also is quite informative. The reader may learn a great deal about a part of WWII history that is not so well known to the general public --- German U2 submarines in US waters and closer! WWII is not the principal focus of the book however!

I loved this book and the writer. I live close to Ono Island where Mr. Andrews lives and could relate to all of the names and places he refereed to in the book. I laughed and cried and relished learning history in such a personal way.

A beautifully written, wonderfully told story of love, loss, forgiveness, and the perseverence of the human spirit. Andy Andrews pulls you into the story and makes you experience his research in a way that touched my heart. I laughed, I cried, and found myself unable to put it down until I closed the back cover.
