Book Review: Shadowed by Grace

About the book: She found peace in a time of war.

Desperate to save her dying mother, an American woman accepts her newspaper's assignment to travel to Italy where she takes photographs dangerously close to the front lines during World War II. But Rachel's real motive in this journey is to find the father she never knew, an artist she hopes can offer the comfort and support both she and her mother need to survive at such a desperate time.

In her quest, Rachel becomes involved with what will become the Monuments Men effort to save great monuments and works of art from the Third Reich. Soon enough she will find more than she ever imagined---in war, in love, and in God.

MY THOUGHTS
This book is one that will make you think, think about the war and what people really went through.  It is a sad story, as well as one of great happiness.  A story of finding oneself and of learning.

Rachel learns so much in this book, she learns about her past, about her mother and her father...learning what she does, paves the way to her future, and teaches her a lot about herself along the way.

An excellent read that will take you back in time.
