This book is phenomenal. Grabs the reader's focus and won't let go. You find yourself immersed in Clara Driscoll's world even after you reluctantly put the book down to go about necessary daily chores. Lost sleep finishing it - well worth it. Get this book, savor it, give copies to others - an excellent read!

Do you want to remember the thrill of having an inspiring, exciting, suspenseful book in your hands? Well....I'm standing on the rooftop to let everybody know this is it! In an effort to make it last, I'm rationing myself a few pages a day (Sadly, this book will come to an inevitable end). I have no doubt that this is Echo's next NY Times Best Seller!
