About All Thirteen, Christina Soontornvat says, "I was visiting family in northern Thailand when the Wild Boars went missing, and like so many others, I became obsessed with following the story. It has been an honor to write this book and to share a Thai perspective, which I feel is vital to understanding how this unprecedented rescue unfolded."
