Resumen del Editor
A British nurse in WWI German-occupied Brussels, Evelyn Marche spends her days at the hospital and her nights working at a café...or so it seems. Eve's most carefully guarded secret is that she also spends her nights carrying out dangerous missions as a spy for a Belgian resistance group.
When a plane crashes as she's en route to a rendezvous, Eve is the first to reach the downed plane and is shocked to recognize the badly injured pilot as British RFC Captain Simon Forrester. She risks her life to conceal him from the Germans, but as the secrets between them grow and the danger mounts, can they still hope to make it out of Belgium alive?

It's not just a thousand miles that separates Hanna Majewski from her younger sister, Stefa. There is another gulf—between the traditional Jewish ways that Hanna chose to leave behind in Warsaw, and her new, independent life in London. But as autumn of 1940 draws near, Germany begins a savage aerial bombing campaign in England, killing and displacing tens of thousands. Hanna, who narrowly escapes death, is recruited as a spy in an undercover operation that sends her back to her war-torn homeland.

Lady Sophronia Bremerton is a far cry from the typical debutante, but she’s the toast of London’s upper class for one simple reason: she’s a society columnist for the London Illustrated News, and the gentry loves seeing their exploits printed in the gossip pages. But Sophie has bigger plans - she aspires to be an investigative reporter. When a stuffy ballroom during yet another Season proves to be nothing more than the usual rumor mill, Sophie seeks respite in the library, alongside four other young women who, for their own reasons, are also looking for escape.

Struggling alone on the family farm, Abigail Tidwell knows exactly who to blame for her hardships: the Americans. If it weren't for their part in the war, her father and brothers would be home rather than fighting abroad. But no amount of antipathy could have prepared her for the shocking sight of a wounded American soldier on her property, a man in dire need of her help. Grudgingly, Abigail tends to the soldier's injuries and anticipates the satisfaction of turning him over to the authorities once he is healed. But fate has other plans.

But as she contemplates returning to Berlin and a life with Stefan, the wounded fiancé she hardly knows anymore, she decides that being in Paris is not so bad after all.

Great story!
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I was disappointed in the narrator. I had trouble discerning which characters we’re speaking. I have listened to several books by this author and the narrators were much better; however, the content of the book made up for it.

Excellent story
This was a wonderfully complex story with many interesting historical facets and a good depth of characters. I enjoyed it very much.
Disappointingly, this narrator was way underskilled for the rich variety of characters. The historically accurate account included people from several parts of the world, and this narrator could not do the accents the characters should possess, and she mispronounced some of the French words. Not performing the accents made it difficult to keep the story straight and decipher who was German, who was Belgian, Scottish, and British, etc, and detracts from the richness of the story. The narrator was only fair to good at acting the parts.
The things that enabled me to finish the book were that the story was very interesting and entertaining, and the narrator had pleasing tone and good character voices.

Horrible accent!
Wow! Crazy that they couldn’t find a narrator to say the few basic French words without butchering them. It was very distracting. Okay plot - the romance was a bit cheesy. Didn’t appreciate the Christian undertones - they weren’t needed as they didn’t add to the plot. Overall great way to learn about the resistance movement in German-occupied Belgium. I would still recommend the book with the above caveats

Narration Ruins This Book
I love this author; she’s one of my top five. But the narration is so bad, I just couldn’t listen anymore. The attempts at the few bits of foreign language were stilted and made you just drop your jaw. So I quit listening and will have to read the book instead.
