Another great read. This was one of my book club choices. Terrorists invade a birthday party and take hostages and relationships evolve. The end was devastating, the denouement saved it in a sorrowful way. Very rich writing, characters that can do little, but feel a great deal, so well depicted.
Also loved the way that the characters rose to the occasion, taking on new roles, finding reasons to get up in the morning, and caring for the individuals that held them hostage.
