What a great story! I truely enjoyed to detail in this book and it took me away to another time and place. Tom Lewis captured the period of the time perfectly and I loved the strong female character of Sunday. I look forward to many more books to come!

An interesting read centering around the life and adventures of an interracial girl named Sunday who was raised by the crew of an all black Life-Saving Station on the coast of N. Carolina… yet it is about so much more than just this. It is about the struggles of blacks and mixed race people, it is about self pride, WW2, racial bias, forgiveness, compassion, and an inner determination to not only survive but also to be fiercely independent & proud of who you are. Filled with characters you can care about, a tad rough in spots writing wise but over all… it’s one of those books you can curl up with a in comfy chair and never notice time rushing by.

This was areally good book! I could not put it down… I thought it would be boring dealing with the different wars and Hitler, but I was wrong. The book kept me involved and made me want to read more!!!!!

I liked this book. Sunday’s character was well developed and I couldn’t wait to find out what she was doing next. The one star review baffles me. It may not be the reviewer’s cup of tea but it’s not that bad. In fact, I couldn’t put it down. felt kind of rushed toward the end, but overall very engaging. Thumbs up especially for the kindle price.
