In this gripping tale of external enforcement and internal salvation, Theresa Marie Moreau reports the true-life story of Matthew Koo, a political prisoner of conscience, who endured prisons and death camps for 29 years in the chaotic, Communist-led People's Republic of China. Meticulously researched and documented, "An Unbelievable Life: 29 Years in Laogai," is an unforgettable read and a testament to the power of individual conscience and faith to outlast even the most brutal manmade ideologies and and regimes.
