Based on actual events of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire of 1911, the author really captured the terror and heartbreak of that day as the events are related by Esther Gottesfeld, the last remaining survivor. I enjoyed the mystery element, too, since Esther’s story seems inconsistent, and there seems to be a secret that may never be revealed. The details of factory conditions, especially for immigrant women, were a powerful reminder of recent history.
