"For when you need to see courage in action This is historical fiction about the occupation of France during World War II, and it’s hardly light reading. But it sure is gripping. It will transport you to another time and place so completely, you’ll feel like you lived it. And even though it’s maybe the last book I’d normally think of as vacation reading, it's a page-turning read about courage in action. Something we could all use right about now."

Darkly gripping and page turning
I do like the Ben Hope books especially the more ancient history ones but this one is good and a page turner as the excitement levels are kept up and so you want to see if they can finish their mission and save the girl or not. However, my only issue is the ending is built up against the bad guy and the conclusion kinda falls a little flat

DNF @ 62%

I struggled with this from early on, it didn't drag me in and tempt me with a good romance or gripping storyline. In fact, up to this point in the story nothing much has happened.

She'd just found out she'd gone from having nothing to pretty much having everything...and I didn't care one bit. That was my cue to give up.

I think with all the good rating I expected it to be better but nah, not for me.
