I could NOT literally put it down waiting for the next expressive shock. This writer can get into the depths of your very being with emotionianlism, intelligence and issues I had never even contemplated. Well! I can tell YOU, sit down, strap up, hankies out and let the roller coaster begin. I am not naturally a book reader as I lose concentration or simply get bored. After procrastinating for some time, I thought I would pick it up and browse the first few pages.

I do not want to spoil it for those of you who are interested in reading this book but I will just say that this book is not what it seems.Ī very emotional story that kept me on the edge of my seat and the characters are so full of life, it just made the story so much more enjoyable…. It completely surprised me in so many ways. Oh my goodness, what can I say about this book. One minor correction – one would build a raft and an oar, not an ore. I did like the surprise twist at the end, but it is some of the details after that where things didn’t quite mesh. Things got off to a very slow start as the foundation was laid, and I found some of the things revealed at the very end were implausible, and not in keeping with how the story had developed to that point.

It is a story at the personal level of people who have been separated by those 90 miles, or have lost families, sometimes forever, and the people who risk everything to help. The story unfolds, and we learn more facets about the 50 year stand-off between the US and Cuba.

We have developed an attachment to characters, and suddenly, they are gone. Then, with a loud blast, the action begins. The basic story history was laid down first, so the reader meets the characters, becomes comfortable in their home in paradise, and is lulled into a laid back Key West style frame of mind.
