The story narrates the main character’s real-life experiences in New York, especially those times when she was scammed and the impact or effects it had on her several years after it happened. Not only that, the author shares her story during her employment years as a nurse. Even though she graduated summa cum laude, she was not exempted from experiencing difficult times during her career. Her struggle wasn’t easy as she also experienced losing a husband, children and close friends. It was a great loss that torn her apart but in the end made her a strong woman.

The story clearly puts into detail how the main character was scammed and how she was enlightened to avoid such scamming that could have possibly put her family’s welfare into danger. The amount that supposedly was put into scam doesn’t just involve hundreds but thousands, and every single dime of that was hard earned. The main character nearly gave away their savings and did not inform her husband about it. The story has a little suspense and thriller because the scammers were pushy and wouldn’t stop until they wouldn’t reach their goal in deceiving someone. As a reader in the story who haven’t experienced scamming that involve a big amount of cash, I would say that I learned from this book, and if I would experience such threat in my life, I would feel the same kind of trauma as what the author have felt. Reading this piece gives us ideas on finding ways to avoid people who have no good intentions to us.

The book is very impressive because the main character could still remember the time of the year as well as the events clearly in her life. It’s a no non-sense reading material and definitely not a waste of money because you can realize how other people overcome their challenges despite losing not only a single loved one but almost every member of the family.
