An American Wife in Paris (The Diplomat's Wife) Gripping and heartbreaking World War 2 fiction by Chrystyna Lucyk-Berger

 

When Kitty is asked to join the French Resistance, she doesn't hesitate, but she worries about her husband Edgar, who is working for the Allies but pretending to be a German officer. Kitty bravely navigates the undercover world in France, joining the group Spector. She bravely sends messages, and carries out clandestine operations, all while trying to avoid the Nazis, who are constantly on their tail. Here, she is helped by the presence of her beloved Aunt, who also becomes involved. But when Kitty has to assist a Polish officer who has an important message for the British government, she faces her biggest test yet. Can she do it? Where is Edgar?

This is a fast-paced, exciting novel. It grabs your interest from the start, and doesn't let go! Kitty is a courageous, likeable heroine, and there are a range of other captivating characters in the book. I found some of Kitty's exploits unbelievable, but many are based on real incidents! I think that it is advisable to read the first book in the series, however, because I found the beginning a bit confusing. I will certainly look out for Chrystyna Lucyk-Berger's other novels. The extract from the first novel, which is on her blog, is certainly riveting.

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