I won’t go into the story-line as I feel that everyone has read this book but me. I felt that it took me a bit to get invested in this book but once I was, I couldn’t put it down. This book tells the story of a few great individuals whose lives were changed by the war. Driven by desire and determina...
In this historical fiction tale of two women generations apart, Quinn creates a gripping, sometimes funy story of betrayal, love, and espionage. I particularly enoyed the drunken, gritty, courageous portrayal of Eve Gardiner, and the slowly evolving relationship between she and CHarlie St. Clair (yo...

Best book I have read all year and quite possibly my favorite Quinn novel yet. This book proves Quinn can bring any era to life with characters who you will find yourself crying over when it is all said and done. Seriously, I need to go find a corner to curl up in now. I just don't know what to do w...

I knew that I wanted to read this book as soon as I read the summary. Historical fiction that focuses on female spies during World Wa...
