The Polish Girl (The Secret Resistance Series) by Gosia Nealon

This story of bravery and resistance set in the war and the Polish uprising against the Nazis will keep you on the edge of your seat! Wanda and Finn are enchanting characters, and the setting of this heartbreaking novel is vivid, and well-researched.

Wanda, a young Polish girl working for the Resistance in war-torn Poland, witnesses an evil Nazi officer murder her beloved father. Soon afterwards, she meets him again. However, can it really be him, because he is being so kind to her, and the little boy she is helping? It is his identical twin brother, sent to impersonate the Nazi, and help the Resistance.   Wanda and Finn start falling in love, but their new-found faith in each other will be heavily tested by the dark forces around them, and thoughts of betrayal.

I enjoyed the story, although it's quite harrowing, but I found Gosia Nealon's style a bit hard to read. The book is written in the present tense, and the mostly very short sentences make it seem a bit stilted, unfortunately.

I received this free ebook from NetGalley in return for an honest review.
