About the Book Book Title: Soul’s Prisoner Author: Cara Luecht Genre: Historical fiction with some suspense and romance Release Date: December 15, 2015 Chicago, Winter, 1891 Rachel is in danger. She’s seen too much. She creeps along the cement walls through the dank underbelly of the asylum. She’d never planned to leave her quiet farm life, never thought she’d find a place in the city, never imagined she’d be in the kind of danger that would have her cowering in Dunning’s cold, labyrinthine basement. Jenny has finally found her place. After a childhood of abuse, she has friends, a real job, and her only wish is to give her adopted son the kind of life she never had. A life of stability, without the risk and uncertainty of a father. But when Jeremy, Rachel’s brother, stumbles into their warehouse, asking for help to find his missing sister, Jenny’s carefully constructed life begins to crumble. Click here to purchase your copy!

This story has a bit of a dark feeling to it. The story seemed a little slow to get going to me, but once it pulls you in this is another one that you will find hard to put it down for wanting to know how it ends. This story is set in Chicago in the 1890s. I think the author did a good job of being descriptive about things such as the smells and state of the streets in the city. This book is fictional but is based on historical facts. Very sad to think that things like this could have really happened. When Rachel chose to leave the country life for the city things did not go at all as she had planned. She made a very rash quick decision that almost cost her her life. Good good read.
