Helpful Score: 1

I loved this historical novel based loosely on the happenings in 1944 occupied Paris during the war. We were introduced to the famous singer Genevieve Dumont and her manager Max. The characters included a famous Nazi as well as members of the aristocracy and collaborators. As the story moved back and forth between locations, times and characters, it was continuously building the suspense. It was horrifying, as well as insightful, to imagine the danger that surrounded the brave people involved in subterfuge. Who could be trusted? Even though this is a 475 page book, it moved very quickly. A friend (thanks Becky) recommended this book and I'm so glad she did!
