“Have you ever wondered what a human life is
worth?”
 
This historical fiction novel is told by fifteen-
year-old Lina of Lithuania.  It is June 1941 when there 
is  a  knock  at  the  door  that  changes  her  life  forever.  
The  Soviet  Secret  Police  (NKVD)  gives  Lina,  her 
mother,  and  younger  brother  only  minutes  to  pack.  
They are then ushered to cattle carts where they begin 
a  heart-wrenching  journey  of  torture,  starvation,  and 
humiliation in Soviet labor camps.  
 
Sepetys does a fantastic job of bringing to the 
forefront a part of history that is often overlooked.  The 
Baltic  region  not  only  endured  the  horrors  of  Hitler 
but  also  the  equally  atrocious  suffering  under  Stalin.  
Military personnel, engineers, teachers, librarians and 
many  more  were  taken  from  their  homes  and  sent  to 
prisons  and  forced  labor  camps  that  proved  just  as 
horrific as any of the concentration camps under Hitler.
 
I  highly  recommend  this  book  for  both  our 
young  adult  readers 
(12+)  and  adults  alike 
bringing  a  different

“Some wars are about bombing. For the people
of the Baltic’s, this war was about believing. In 1991,
after fifty years of brutal occupation, the three Baltic
countries regained their independence, peacefully and
with dignity. They chose hope over hate and showed
the world that even through the darkest night, there is
light…..These three tiny nations have taught us that
love is the most powerful army. Whether love of friend,
love of country, love of God, or even love of enemy –
love reveals to us the truly miraculous nature of the
human spirit.” – Ruta E. Sepetys
