Customer Reviews
👍
Very insightful for a horrifying truth. Worded so you see it with your mind and reads very easily, but not to be mistake for an easy read (easy to understand, not easy on the heart wrenching) . There’s a “translation dictionary” of sorts in the back for words you get stuck with but all are explained. Harrowing, left me feeling very uneasy and considering the books nature it should leave you feeling the same 👍
Five Chimneys
Excellent read & value for money, I couldn't put it down once I'd started reading. Chillingly accurate account of the horrors those poor souls went through, would highly recommend!
