Wow! This book was, well I’m almost at a loss for words.

It was incredibly well written and I was unable to put it down. I had tears in my eyes at several points throughout.
I was very invested in each character.

The spiritual aspect of this was well done as it explored the big question of why God allows such horrific things to happen.

The relationship development was well done and not in a common predictable way. One of the best books I have read recently.

I loved this read, sadly although fiction, this is based on facts, and please read the author's notes as she updates on the real people that were affected.

This is WWII time, and what a treat to have the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus come, it's all anyone can talk about! The author features the family of Evelyn Benson, a Gold Star Widow, she now lives with her brother and his wife, and daughter and son! Life is hard and money is tight, but this family is going to the circus.

Hank Webb is running from God and his past, and he is Fraidy Freddy, and he does have real reasons to be afraid!

The unimaginable happens that night, and then more and more nightmares, I really can't imagine!

Through out this story people of faith are put in these hurting put in their path, and we journey along with them through the turmoil!

How everything works out is a page turner, and the author gifts us with an epilogue!

I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Barbour, and was not required to give a positive review.
