A. J. Gauld: I'd never heard of the air ambulance teams and knew very little about the war in Albania. This book prompted me to fill in some gaps.

Kindle Customer: Another amazing book by Soraya. The story of these three women did not take the path I was expecting! However, it is a fascinating story with characters that will stay with me.

Sanann J.: I have read several of the author's books and each one is better than the one before. Excellent writing and the characters are relatable and have a depth to them that makes the reader want to know them better.

Kindle Customer: I really enjoyed this book, and learnt a lot from it. The courage of the men and women really makes you think. I know it is not a true story as such, but similar incidents would have happened. Highly recommend it

Mary: I really liked this story! Set in Sicily 1943. A very engaging story that allows the reader to travel back in time. The audiobook was narrated very well! A very enjoyable read and I will read more by this author! Enjoy!

Jan Stockton: ...and their courage to survive their horrific experiences during WWII in the European Theater.
But, true to the strength of the human spirit, they not only survived; they allowed themselves to to thrive rather than become victims.
Their determination to go forward day after day, inspite of their hardships, fostered their growth, strength, and love so they could move on in life and find joy in their painful memories.
Lane captivates the reader from page 1 to the end of this almost forgotten history! Thanks for capturing another captivating, but little known, Chapter of World War II, cementing the cause of Freedom in our World.

PB: First I want to say I really like this author. Her writing style is easy it flows and manages to make you feel like you are right there intertwined with the characters.
The story follows 3 nurses each with their own problems trying to flee the Nazis with the help of the towns people. This book has love, mystery, murder, twists, and betrayals you don't see coming. There are parts of this book that you will not be able to put down. Having said that I only gave it 4 stars because I did not like the ending. I won't say any more because IMHO it's worth your time to read and I don't want to give anything away.
May I also suggest 2 books which I just love A Fire Sparkling by Maclean and the Paris Secret by Natasha Lester.

DarcyJ: I loved the three ladies. Such good friends through it all. All three so different. Great character development. Cried at the ending. Seemed a tad long winded, but other than that, I liked it.
