Very good book,this is Bk 3,I will be looking for the other two books of Hope River.
I believe I've read everything written by this author, however this book was a huge disappointment for me. When I sat down to dive in, I found, within the first 40 pages or so, a political agenda written in purposefully by the author. Who can possibly ignore her description of Hitler's rise to power - "He'd make Germany great again, a superpower like it once was. There would be jobs for all. They'd throw the non-Germans out. Limit immigration" -as a complete parallel to our current president? Okay, that's it for me. The author is using her novel as a platform - in a (not very) subtle way - for her political beliefs of today. That's fine, she can do that, but for me, I don't want to hear about her politics. I just wanted an interesting, entertaining book. We're being bombarded with political opinion from every angle these days - it's suffocating.
