“My husband was reading it until 4am. It was a page-turner, he couldn’t put it down! He put it on par with The Hiding Place or God’s Smuggler.” – Annette E.
Branded an enemy. Swept to Siberia. Shaped by adversity.
The Story in 30 sec.
The Iron Broom is the gripping true story of David, raised between two worlds:
the warmth of his family home and the domination of Soviet communism.
When he chose personal conviction over conformity, the Soviet military sentenced him to a prison camp deep in the Siberian taiga, one of the empire’s harshest outposts. There, guarding the broken and forgotten, David came face to face with a system designed to extinguish individual identity and crush the soul.
But the punishment designed to break him became the one that shaped him.

“ I laughed and cried as I experienced the world through Tina and David’s eyes. This book is a hidden gem,” one of the most inspiring true stories of courage and beauty born out of intense hardship – Melanie M.
