After being sidelined for a pesky gunshot wound, typist-turned-field agent Evelyne Redfern is ready for her next assignment with Britain’s secretive Special Investigations Unit. When a British Intelligence informant in Portugal mysteriously disappears just after hinting that he has vital information about German plans that could tip the balance of World War Two, Evelyne and her dashingly irksome partner, David Poole, are sent headed to Lisbon to find him.

Once they land, Evelyne and David aren't even able to leave the airport, before she discovers one of their fellow aeroplane passengers murdered and uncovers a diary with a clear link between the victim and their missing informant. With their mission in jeopardy before it can truly begin, Evelyne and David fight to keep their cover intact as they descend deeper into the shadows that surround Lisbon’s glittering collection of wealthy expats and dangerous spies. This case will test Evelyne and David’s training, charm, and wit—and their growing attraction for one another.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A brisk espionage romp.”–Kirkus Reviews

Mystery, Spies and Underestimated Women

This has become one of my favorite series and I know I'm always in for adventure with Evelyne.

In this latest book, she and her partner David are sent to Portugal to find out where a British Informant has disappeared to.

Evelyne is also on the look out for her Father who attempted to sell her late Mother's jewels and could potentially be caught up in the situation that her and her partner have been sent to investigate.

Full of mystery, intrigue, twists and quite the cliffhanger, I couldn't wait to see what would happen next and whether Evelyne might learn why her Father us also in Portugal.

Highly recommend this book and looking forward to the next one!

Outstanding

Oh yeah this was a good follow up but that ending has me jonesing for the next release. Like what? David? Ughhhh

A good listen

The story was a little slower paced than the previous story but it was very entertaining. Evelyn had to deal with two investigations, one being her father. Intrigue in Lisbon as she and David investigate a smuggling ring. The end was a little startling but it sets up an interesting next story.

Much better then first two books

This was a good listen. Kept my attention while deep into crocheting hats. Looking forward to the next one.

Excellent

I enjoyed the characters, the mystery and the ending. I am looking forward
to what happens next.
