As I occasionally state, I don’t read summaries to avoid spoilers or any info that might influence my opinion. I didn’t know this was historical fiction, based on somebody known to exist. It changes my opinion, for the better. It’s sad that this hero has been forgotten to time.

As for the storytelling, I found it fantastic. I thought this was a suspense story and it genuinely had me nervously hanging onto every word, fearful for the protagonist and her plight. It was well written, easy to follow, and did a decent job of explaining the customs of the time without going into excessive detail or leaving me with more questions than answers.

I found the narration to be alright. It did a serviceable job, but I found the protagonist and her mother sounded too similar for me. Aside from that early issue, I didn’t notice or make note of any of the other characters while listening.
