From Publishers Weekly: "Higgins returns to familiar territory with nothing very new to offer. As D-day approaches in Europe, the Allied command learns of a German staff conference to be held in Brittany at the Chateau de Voincourt, where the Nazis will discuss their Atlantic Wall defense strategy. Foreknowledge of these plans could mean the difference between success and failure for the Allied invasion, and as luck would have it, the chateau happens to be the home of an undercover French Resistance agent, beautiful Anne-Marie Trevaunce, so there is every chance that the good guys will succeed in stealing them. When Anne-Marie is incapacitated, luck comes to the fore once again: she just happens to have an identical twin sister living in England who is persuaded to take her place. Fortuitous turns are the norm in this improbable story, as cardboard heroes pull off miraculous rescues, double agents lurk everywhere and villains in uniform serve on both sides of the conflict."

Interesting historical novel.
May 1944. The eve of the Allied Invasion of Europe. When American OSS agent Craig Osbourne is taken aboard a german E-boat off the coast of Brittany, he thinks that his war - and possibly is life - are over. But the Lili Marlene is actually operated by the Royal Navy out of an ultrasecret base on the English coast. And it will soon be returning Osbourne - a highly trained assassin- to occupied France. There, he will help the beautiful twin sister of a dead British agent infiltrate a German High Command briefing on the defense of the Atlantic Wall. Nothing will prevent the coming Allied assult - but its success may well depend on the outcome of this mission... Seattle Post Intelliencer

World WarII senario. As usual Higgins has written a cliff hanger.
The book is even more enjoyable if you have some knowledge of the second World War.

A somewhat entertaining book, but also proof that eventually even the best writers run out of ideas. When they get to that point, then it is time to throw in enough sex and violence to cover up the fact that the plot is essentially the same as he or she used in previous books.
Just another reason why "Best Selling New York Times" authors continue to disappoint me.
Don't get me wrong, there are several of Higgins' books that I thoroughly enjoyed and are still on my shelves. This just won't be one of them.
