"This book was my first introduction to how corrupt the justice system can be. That sounds naïve, but it's a fact of life. Until I read this it never once occurred to me that sometimes closing a case is more important than finding justice to those who have the power to convict an individual of a crime. It was educational to say the least."

"This book is actually more the story of Elizabeth Smart, but then who is better equipped to tell this story? Honestly I admire her so much that words fail me. She tells the story of her abduction, how it effected her family, how the planning and execution took place, and how she was recovered. She is very brave, very strong, and I am proud of her in the same way we are proud of our returning soldiers even if none of them belong to us."
