About the book:
This story is based on true events that happened in the year 1942. I am not much of a historical fiction reader yet took this book based on the recommendation from few of my friends.
The story was intriguing, and the pages just flipped so fast that I can’t keep the book down. My heart was broken, and tears rolled while reading the struggle of innocent people who were put to death and were exploited without mercy or humanity.
The plot of the story was good as the author concentrated on the exclusive salient features of it. Love is one such essence that was mixed in the story to make it as a perfect novel.
Certain places felt more of dramatic scenarios, yet it made us flicker in those moments and pull into the truth of reality. Fate plays a vital role in everyone’s life and those who master it can survive the situation.
Lale was brave enough to undergo such scenarios makes him to be a real hero. If he meant to be a hero, it doesn’t mean that he should save everyone but at least he put his effort by helping people and offering them what he can do with his abilities.
The author has made efforts to explore and learn the truth behind the event happened and gave us a heart welcoming story. This book is full of tragedies, miseries, screaming, love etc., forms the perfect blend of the story.
I would recommend to all readers who are fan of War based stories and has heart to withstand miseries.
My rating is 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌠for this vivid Novel.
