Ratings and reviews

Beautiful story that kept me reading, fantasizing and rooting for every hero. These children are believable and touch on so many emotions. ..as a parent, a guardian, humanitarian and friend. The suspense escalates to a frenzy of questions and hair raising panic! Wonder filling look at human potential and catastrophe. Loved this book!

Couldn't put it down; lost sleep but it was worth it. One of the best books I've ever read. Looking forward to reading more from Patterson. Well written, easy to follow and just enough description to make you feel like you are there. Plus a few twists and turns out that keep you on the edge and wanting more!!! A+++

Another, you want to go to sleep, but you have to turn the page, cause you just have to know.. So ya don't put it down til the book falls out of your hands!
