§ One Response to Reviews by Author

  • Maria Sutton says:

    I read your review of The Book Thief and thought you might be interested in reading my memoir, The Night Sky: A Journey from Dachau to Denver and Back. It’s about my 43-year search for my biological father who disappeared shortly after my birth in war-torn Germany. As I take the reader on my journey between the past and the present in Ukraine, Poland, Germany, Russia, and my association with a former KGB agent to solve a decades-long mystery, I learn the family secrets of untold heroism, quiet courage, and a mother’s love – and of tragedy, disillusionment and heartbreak. At the end of my long journey, I uncover a shattering and painful truth. But the secret, however heartbreaking, would also become the greatest gift I would receive.

    If you’re interested, search for “Maria Sutton” in Amazon.com. Thanks!

    Sincerely,
    Maria Sutton
    P.S. I really enjoyed your website!
