Yikes! The real details of what goes on in North Korea are wild, and this dramatized story helps hit the true horror home.
I expected this book to be a lot more ... worthy, I suppose is the word. You know, slower. More inner monologues and introspection. But colour me thrilled, because this book wallops a punch of action, intrigue and multi-perspective stakes-raising suspense!
This sounds horrible but it's a lot of fun.
