Historical fiction always interests me, to find out how/where things happened, how people lived their lives, and to learn about situations I never knew existed.
The Lost Girls of Paris tells us about the brave women who served the British Special Operations Executive. Recruited by Eleanor Trigg, these women trained as radio operators and couriers, then were air dropped into France, often to work alone undercover.
Interesting story, with some parts causing some eye rolling as I felt the fiction was overtaking the truth! However, the story shows the bravery, courage, and sisterhood of these young women.
Writing was enjoyable, but too many far-fetched situations in NYC after the war that just detracted from the core story.
