A riveting page-turner full of surprise after surprise, that evokes emotions that swell to the very core of humanity and Christianity.
The amazing story of Stan and Pat Dale among the Yali people, the battle on the front line over the lives and souls of men and women and children all made in the image of God, but having lost view of what the image means.
This was an exciting book to read, not just for the exotic setting in remote Irian Jaya, not just for the odd social Yali customs, not just for the bravery and determination of the missionaries who lived among these cannibalistic people, but because Richardson is a superb storyteller who knows how to blend fascinating tales with a good dash of suspense. It took very little effort to read this book as I was so caught up in the story that it was hard to put down. Recommended reading.
