Jean M. (ChiWeenie) reviewed on 7/2/2014 + 70 more book reviews

The first chapter is a little slow, it's giving history of the area and background into the characters. Stick with it because this story picks up in the second chapter and then steams ahead. It's been a long time since I've read a book, covered my mouth with my hand and said aloud "Oh, no!" It's a quick read and a good read. Don't stop at the end. Read the Author's Notes and gain more insight into the leper colony at Molokai. I knew it was there but these people lived lives that I hadn't given any thought to. I might just read this one again in a few years.
