This historical novel was inspirational and brutal. The storytelling captivates you from beginning to end. The journey of these characters was difficult to read through. I loved this book because it tells the untold stories of those often neglected in society. I definitely recommend this audiobook if you enjoy inspirational and historical narratives.
