I read this book in one sitting because I could not put it down! With each flashback to Isabelle’s childhood, another part of the puzzle dropped into place, revealing more of the picture. I will be searching out more books by this author!

The author provided a unique view into the actions of January 6, 2021 and the subsequent Select Committee’s investigation. The facts are presented in a measured way although some parts seemed repetitive. The book was worth reading, in my opinion, because this pivotal event should not be forgotten or glossed over by the lies of election fraud.
