None Left to Tell: A Historical Thriller

Three women, connected by one of the most shocking mass murders you've never heard of.
Lucy always turns the other cheek-and she's had plenty of experience. Her family and friends have been beaten, abused, and run out of town for their unusual religious beliefs. But when Lucy's fourteen-year-old son becomes the target of the hatred, it's a different story. This time, it's an eye for an eye.
Katrina knew that dragging her family across the country for a fresh start would be difficult. But she had no idea she'd be leading them straight into hell. She'll do whatever it takes to protect her children-but the battle to survive will be more harrowing than she can imagine.
Sally is no stranger to suffering. As a teenager, she was forced to marry a man she barely knew. Trapped and isolated in the Utah desert, she tries to make the best of her situation. But when her husband joins a group of religious extremists planning revenge, she's forced to reconsider her loyalties-even if it means putting her own life at risk.
Based on true events, None Left to Tell is the story of the Mountain Meadows Massacre.

Don't go into this book expecting it to be like Noelle W. Ihli's other books. I enjoyed the historical aspect of this fictional story based on true events, despite this being a difficult story to tell. Clearly, it's important to tell this story. However, parts of this story were difficult to swallow. I think I had a hard time connecting with the characters, but I can't tell if there's anything else that impacted this story for me. It didn't exactly deliver like I was hoping it would. But it was still a good time.

None Left to Tell is a gut-wrenching, sobering read. Ihli does an impactful and incredible job of grounding this story in its true-story roots—the "based on a true story" element was both educational and deeply moving. It’s a heavy, powerful account that feels incredibly respectful to the real events.
My only minor gripe was the pacing; it felt a bit slow in certain stretches, but the emotional payoff and the sheer intensity of the narrative more than made up for it. If you’re a fan of thrillers that leave a lasting impact, don’t miss this one.

This book was devastating and emotional, but I highly recommend it. It’s a subject and time period. That I knew nothing about. I felt that the author did an incredible job of building characters. I also found it very interesting how it was based in reality.
The email promoting the book from the author had me very intrigued that I had to read it. This piece of history is not one I knew prior to reading this book and so glad I took the time. Reading the Afterword is sounds like Noelle was truly meant to write this book. This is such a sad part of history that seems to still not want the true nature of what happened come to light however I believe Noelle did a great job portraying it in a story that makes you want to know what happened.
