The story itself is very good. I've read other reviews that say it's been done before. I haven't read any like it so I enjoyed the story. However, I think the writing could have been better. At times it seemed amateurish and just a little too simple. I love books that take me away with beautiful language and this one didn't do that for me.
I enjoyed hearing Ben's story and feeling emotion for the plight of the Polish people but the fact that a lawyer would sit and listen to such a drawn out story is unbelievable. I guess I would have liked it written in a different manner. Every time Catherine asked Ben to get to the proof she needed he would tell her to wait, to listen to more of his story. You knew every time she said this she was not going to get her wish. If she did there would be no story.
