I am a long time fan of Lisa Scottoline and her novels. I am also a big fan of good historical fiction. And this one is up there with the best. I admit being a bit skeptical at first since this was her first foray into historical fiction, but quickly found out I couldn't put it down. This covers such a sad time in world history, but vividly illustrates what happens when one group of people decide other groups are lesser humans and assert their presumed superiority. The disruptions that follow such behavior overturn an entire community that had been otherwise vibrant, peaceful and healthy. ETERNAL is an Incredibly realistic story in the way it relates down to minute details just how society can derail. I hope she will take a stab at another historical novel someday. I also appreciate her author's comments at the end, separating fact from fiction.
