Silvia has one again written something gritty, thrilling and completely surprising. I never know where the story will end and I personally LOVE it! The characters are humanly flawed and 100% believable as people you may come across in day to day life. It's impressive how thorough the author is in their depiction of current events in the timeline of the settings of their novels. It's created a desire to want to look into the history of the area and possibly others as well.
