Daughters of War is set during the Nazi occupation of France and tells the story of three sisters: Hélène, Elise and Florence.

Hélène, the eldest, is a nurse and does her best to protect her two younger sisters, although Elise is determined to play her part in the Resistance. Florence is happy to hide away in their cottage, longing for the day that France will be free again.

I loved the relationships between the sisters - they’re all sp different from one another - and they pull together in times of need and danger.

And there’s plenty of danger here, both in their village and in the places that Hélène and Elise must go to as their roles in the Resistance dictate.

And the secret they uncover about Florence is pretty shocking and totally unexpected for the sisters.

This was a really enjoyable read on The Pigeonhole. There’s a great mix of emotion, adrenaline and danger. This is the first book in a planned trilogy, and I’m really looking forward to seeing where the sisters go next in the next two books.

Many thanks to The Pigeonhole and the publisher for serialising this book - I loved it.

This game is alright. I know there are a lot of people who love these games, I'm just a terrible liar and not great at the strategies this game requires. If I am on the resistance side, I am always found out. This makes the game less fun for me and my teammates. I would much rather watch the game be played as it has very interesting dynamics and it is fun to see how everyone's mind works.
