My Review:
Inside this book is an intense and gripping read. I picked this one to read because of the main character is a photographer. That's something dear to my heart. What I found, was a book so big, so deep and so profound that I can hardly do it justice with a review. 

A few times I was holding my breath and I basiclly prayed my way through the story. It's memorable, it's deep, emotional, and shows God's faithfulness in the worst of times.

Guest Post from Alana Terry

Have you seen in the news that the leaders of North and South Korea have both publicly stated their willingness to promote peace on the Korean peninsula? It was certainly a historic moment, and this part of the world has earned its place in global headlines.
My interest in North Korea, however, goes back over a decade, when as a young mother I received a prayer burden for the people of North Korea. Fast-forward to five years ago when my debut novel was released. The Beloved Daughter follows the life of a young girl who is sent to prison camp because of her father’s Christian faith. In addition to winning several awards, The Beloved Daughter gave an expression to my prayer burden to see North Korea free to worship the one true God.
Out of North Korea is unique among my other titles because it’s the first story that focuses on an American in North Korea. Ian McAllister is captured and held in a Pyongyang prison because of a photograph he took of a young homeless boy. I hope the message leaves you as inspired and encouraged as I was when I was writing it.

  1. Dear Ms. Terry,

    I wanted to say, I am so sorry this didn't run on the day it was supposed to be posted. We have had a very close friend have to go through the removal of life support for his twin. It's been emotional and difficult, still, this should have gone out on time.

    Thank you so much for writing this book. It's going to be a blessing to many!

    Sincerely, Carol
