Miller’s historical thriller provides a good sense of World War II; however, this is undermined by the ease with which Jake and his group plot and carry out escapes, which seem to minimize the danger they would have faced in real life. Includes a synopsis of The Hunt for the Peggy C, chapter notes, a bibliography, and the stories behind the real people who populate the novel.

This novel, which has a feel of a modern classic, is a must purchase addition for people facing grief and looking for hope and healing. It will leave readers with new insights and many questions about grief, suicide, and spirituality.

This striking personal account may serve as an inspiration to anyone facing difficulties in life. For fans of Rinker Buck’s The Oregon Trail and William Least Heat-Moon’s Blue Highways.
