One of the best books I've read in a long time. The level of historical accuracy is fantastic. The characters are engaging and the plot left me on the edge of my seat. ( )

Come along as you follow Anna, an American woman who finds herself with a job in the Office of Strategic Service, as the assistant to General Donovan. From then, Anna’s life gets interesting as she starts to train as a wireless operator and spy for the French Resistance. There were many moments that this book to my breath away and there were many knots in my stomach. Jane is a masterful storyteller and Anna’s was wonderfully told. With a cast of secondary characters, you can’t help but to hope for the best and mentally prepare yourself for the worse. Highly recommend this book, mainly for the rich writing but the adventure that awaits you as you crack the book open. This will be on my reread shelf for years to come. ( )

Jane Healey always tells a good story in my opinion so when this was offered via Amazon First Reads it was a no-brainer for me. It is obvious how much research Jane puts into developing her stories and the way she takes such care with the storyline of each character. While there are romances within her stories, they do not always take center stage and are important to the plot and character development. Jane Healey is an author worth reading and getting to know as she shows respect for the story as well as the reader by being as authentic as possible. ( )

Another well-researched historical fiction by Jane Healey about the O.S.S. lead by William "Wild Bill" Donovan. Similar to the author's other books a group of women comes together to change history. I look forward to another novel by Ms. Healey ( )

A wonderful look at the French resistance during WWII and the network of women utilized to further that cause. ( )
