Resumen del Editor

On her first mission for MI6, the daring young photographer at the heart of this thrilling new mystery series by best-selling author Anne Perry travels to Mussolini's Italy to rescue the lover who betrayed her.

Britain's secret intelligence service, MI6, has lost contact with its informant in northern Italy, just as important information about the future plans of Austria and Nazi Germany is coming to light. And young Elena Standish, to her surprise, is the only person who can recognize MI6's man - because he is her former lover. Aiden Strother betrayed Elena six years ago, throwing shame on her entire family. Now, with so much to prove, Elena heads to Trieste to track down Aiden and find out what happened to his handler, who has mysteriously cut off contact with Britain.

As Elena gets word of a secret group working to put Austria in the hands of Germany, her older sister, Margot, is in Berlin to watch a childhood friend get married - to a member of the Gestapo. Margot and Elena's grandfather, the former head of MI6, is none too happy about the sisters' travels at this tumultuous time, especially when a violent event at home reminds him that even Britain is growing dangerous. As his own investigation collides with his granddaughters, whats at stake on the continent becomes increasingly frightening - and personal.

Against the backdrop of a rapidly changing Europe, New York Times best-selling author Anne Perry crafts a novel full of suspense, political intrigue, and the struggle between love and loyalty to country.

Much better

This second entry in the series is much better than the first one. It moved at a better pace, while still balancing the different storylines.

A must read

I loved everything about the book: history and mystery, performance. A fabulous book to listen to while traveling. The book was so engaging that I missed two exits which worked in my favor. I miss a lot of construction.

Excellent

Another great story. Amazing how the history and fiction are combined. Feeling the horrors of getting ready for WW2

Wow, what a story!!!

I love Elenor Standish!!! (And ALL THE CHARACTERS, even the evil ones...okay, only like evil ones),

Maybe even be better than Monk, Hester, T and C Pitt, and D Pitt!! (And THAT’s saying something). I’ve read books 1 and 2 of this series...frantically looking for number 3 to download. Worried to read number 4, as it may be a while for another one to be published.

Please write another one!!!!!

Betrayal

This was a wonderful, suspenseful mystery. Wonderful characterizations with love & sadness. And surprises. I highly recommend it.

Not as good as Book 1

Meh. Not as good as the first book in this series. Too much about appearances and so forth--great clothes, great bodies, handsome guys. :) Gets tiresome. Especially if the plot is rather transparent.

Twisty and good.

Interesting growth of Elena since first book. I'm a sucker for WWII spy novels. This was another one by A.P. Looking forward to the third in series.

Lives up to her past books!

I would recommend this book to anyone. A wonderful plot with amazing twists and turns. A new main character who has great promise.

Excellent edge of your seat diction

Another winner for Perry! I can’t wait to hear the rest in the series. Anne does not disappoint.

good.... not great...

I liked the layers to the story and I see more books coming... yay!

I found the romance annoying.. tedious....I fast forwarded through it.....

I look forward to the next book!
