I actually loved this one, and it's one of my favourite books I read this year. I loved everything about this story, the suspense, the pacing, I didn't see who the guilty people were until the end of the book reveals it and I loved the time period this was set in. All around a great book and a great historical fiction about the race against the clock and saving an innocent life.
