Based on the true events at the Hawks Nest Tunnel in Summersville, WV, this is a light read and non-dogmatic Christian fiction that I enjoyed. It features several characters who are facing challenges and living with difficult past; their stories are believable and compelling. For more information about the disaster see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawks_Nest_Tunnel_disaster and https://www.nps.gov/neri/planyourvisit/the-hawks-nest-tunnel-disaster-summersvil... ( )

This story begins in 1932 in West Virginia, and is set with so many emotions, there will be tears and smiles, and you will be quickly turning pages for answers. I'll admit my mind went to the TV show The Walton's, and in a way the time period is the same. Times are hard, but come and meet Gainey, Jeremiah, and Sulley, wonderful characters, all with flaws but we see how much they care for their fellow man.

I didn't know about the Hawks Nest Tunnel, but it made me so upset, so much injustice, for me I remember part of a song the said, you owe your soul to the company story, and it sure played out here.

I loved the way this story played out, and what a great ending!

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