This book was outstanding. I finished it in record time.Not only is it aq story of a mother's love and determination, it also gives the reader terrific historical background of the cold war and the Berlin Wall.Definitely a 5 star book.

I thoroughly enjoy Preston's books. She writes a good story, without being graphic. The story about the Berlin wall is heartwrenching and doesn't need to be elaborated for one to wonder how they would handle it. So many issues: seperating families, political beliefs and how far does anyone go for either.

Thia ia really a great book. Through its not true it makes you realise what people went through when the Berlin wall was put up. You will not be disappointed with this one.

What would a mother do to recover a child left at the wrong side of the Berlin wall during the sepparation of East and West Germany? Read this book and you will see the extent of a mother's love.
I really enjoyed this book--kept me interested the whole time & I became very involved with the characters. Well done!
