Flora and Grace

De: Maureen Lee

Narrado por: Nerys Hughes

It's 1944 and Flora Knox is enjoying a beautiful spring morning in the Swiss mountains, waiting on a railway station platform for a train. As Flora watches, a cattle train draws closer to the station, pulling a fleet of slatted trucks behind. But the trucks don't contain animals. From within come the sounds of humans, groaning, pleading, on a desperate journey across the Swiss countryside.

Horrified, Flora runs to the train as it slowly clatters through the station, and as she does so, a filthy bundle of rags is pushed out into her arms. Through the slats of the train, she hears a desperate plea: “Take him. His name is Simon.” As the train disappears, Flora is left holding a tiny baby boy.

Everything looks just the same as it did moments before - the sun, the sky, the station - but nothing will ever be the same again.

great read

I love the story love characters and the narrator did a wonderful job but I wish the author would complete the story and not leave the readers to imagine how it ends apart from that it's a grand story

Maureen Lee does it again

Any additional comments?

The best description I can give of this book, as with all Maureen Lee's books is that I am sad when I finish them. I get so caught up in the characters, that they become friends, and I hate to let them go. Ms. Hughes also does an excellent job with the narration. This book does not disappoint.

Predictable

This book was OK. Nothing spectacular. About half way through I had it figured out and strongly considered not finishing it.

It reminds me why I don't love romance as a genre.

There was nothing wrong with this book, if you like sappy, predictable books, go for it.
