The power of healing with a great book

I enjoyed this book. I wasn't sure what to expect with this book, I get upset watching Disney film's so when I read the blurb and found out it was talking to lost one's I was a little sceptical if it was for me or not but I really like the author so I gave it ago. Glad I did because I enjoyed it (and without shedding a single tear). The subject was an unusual one but it was well done and it had me hooked to find out what was going on. The story is told by two characters as they both try to uncover what is going on at No Divide's and then as they work together to take down the company. The story is in the 13 and up category but I think that it is good enough and interesting enough for any age to listen to and enjoy. The characters were young and inexperienced but I think they were perfect for the job of investigating the company. I look forward to listening to more books by this talented author.

I liked the narrator and loved the accent she used for one of the characters.
