Search - My Name is Eva: An absolutely gripping and emotional historical novel

My Name is Eva An absolutely gripping and emotional historical novel
Author: Suzanne Goldring

You can pay a terrible price for keeping a promise? — Evelyn Taylor-Clarke sits in her chair at Forest Lawns Care Home in the heart of the English countryside, surrounded by residents with minds not as sharp as hers. It would be easy to dismiss Evelyn as a muddled old woman, but her lipstick is applied perfectly, and her buttons done up correctly... more ». Because Evelyn is a woman with secrets and Evelyn remembers everything. She can never forget the promise she made to the love of her life, to discover the truth about the mission that led to his death, no matter what it cost her?

When Evelyn?s niece Pat opens an old biscuit tin to find a photo of a small girl with a red ball entitled ?Liese, 1951? and a passport in another name, she has some questions for her aunt. And Evelyn is transported back to a place in Germany known as ?The Forbidden Village,? where a woman who called herself Eva went where no one else dared, amongst shivering prisoners, to find the man who gambled with her husband?s life?

A gripping, haunting and compelling read about love, courage and betrayal set in the war-battered landscape of Germany. Fans of The Letter, The Alice Network and The Nightingale will be hooked.

?This may be my new favorite book!!!! I absolutely love the premise of the heroine faking dementia in her retirement home to cover up her knowledge of questionable activities centering around WWII events. The tempo of this novel was perfect--kept me wondering until the very last page!? Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars

?Absolutely loved this book and its riveting plot!... The author has successfully penned a debut novel that I would highly recommend without any hesitation. An excellent debut novel from Suzanne Goldring and I look forward to reading more of her work. Historical fiction is my favourite genre to read and this book was every bit as good as some of the well-known WW2-themed titles published in recent years.? Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars

?A poignant and evocative story of love, betrayal and bravery that kept me page turning and completely engrossed from start to finish. Loved it and would definitely recommend.? NetGalley Reviewer, 5 stars
