WOW--This is a powerful read. This story is true and a heart jerker. To think the US would help hide these children. The roller coaster ride your emotions will go thru with this mother as she searches for her children. I don't know how she found the strength to keep her sanity. I loved this read, but the story is one you won't forget for awhile.

Patsy Heymans makes you feel as though you are right there going through her six and a half year ordeal with her. Her husband Chaim Yarden promised her that he would ruin her life and he kept that promise. He is the true epitome of evil.
I was apalled to find that the US was allowing strangers to keep Patsy Heymans children from her. When Chaim was arrested the Jewish community kept the children from Patsy hiding the children in New York. With this turn of events Patsy's case went from a parental abduction to stranger abduction.
I'm telling you this book will take you on a roller coaster ride of emotions
