Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2024
This is either the first book or second book I’ve read from this writer. I felt like I was thrust into the war at the time. Hard truths became real as I read about the occupation and the destruction of so many lives and places with historical relevance. I read about this war in school and in college, but the author brings out just how devious agents and agents were and are to this very day. WW2 was more than bad, and I felt like I was living in some of the scenes. This novel is not all gloom and doom. There are funny, lighthearted moments and romance interspersed with spies and subturfuge to make people higher up within the regimes believe the Intel given, and one woman from France became a double agent. Real life with rationing and black out curtains was normal. Five shiny gold stars!
