They Lived to Tell the Tale

This book is more exciting than an action thriller, more tension-building than a psychological drama. But this wonderfully varied collection of stories is far more than a gripping read. Each story is a true account of real events, heightening your hunger for what happens next and willing you to turn every page. What’s more the characters are ordinary people, people just like you, who take you on their emotional journeys, share their highs and lows and leave you ultimately inspired.
