Acerca de esta escucha
My name is Sylvie Duchene and I am a dancer. There is no network. I am just a dancer. I know nothing. Please…I swear it…
An unknown location, occupied France, 1944
Dropping silently behind enemy lines, Sylvia Crichton, codename Monique, is determined to fight for the country of her birth and save it from its Nazi stranglehold.
As one of the dancers at the nightclub Mirabelle, Sylvie’s mission is to entertain the club’s German clientele and learn their secrets. In a world of deception and lies, she can trust no one. Not even Mirabelle’s enigmatic piano player Felix… a part of the resistance or a collaborator?
But despite her SOE training, nothing can prepare Sylvie for the horrors she is about to face – or the pain of losing those she grows closer to undercover…
This is a pageturning and gripping romance set in occupied France during WW2 for fans of Pam Jenoff !

In enemy-occupied Paris, as the locals go to bed starving and defeated by the war, music and laughter spills through the door of a little restaurant, crowded with German soldiers. The owner, Marianne, moves on weary feet between its packed tables, carrying plates of steaming, wholesome food for the enemy officers. Her smile is bright and sparkling, her welcome cordial. Nobody would guess the hatred she hides in her heart. That night, the restaurant closes its doors for the final time.

It was a misty Wednesday morning. Inside the Gestapo headquarters, you could cut the tension with a knife. There was a traitor in their midst: Someone had leaked a list of the SS to the British press. The head of the Gestapo called me into his office. Panelled oak walls, a grand piano in the corner, rugs lining the floor—the place where he ordered executions every day.

When her grandmother passed away two months ago, she left Alice an apartment in France that no one knew existed. An apartment that has been locked for more than 70 years.

Good ww2 story
I could have done without the sexual situations and I fast forwarded several times and missed nothing . When the audio was actually about espionage and war and nazi it was great. I wish author had stayed on task and gotten rid of the fluff of sexual tension. I was not really interested in a romantic audio. I noticed that once you rate the book with the stars it cannot be revised. Narrator was excellent but I should have rated it with 3 stars . But kudos for no profanity

Not too heavy
I really enjoy historical fiction but occasionally the stories of the suffering of us those who endured the atrocities of the nazis, or were part of WW2 resistance is too heartbreaking even though it is ‘fiction”. The reader did an absolutely outstanding job! And- the story was historically accurate without being too sad. I also really enjoyed the romance. It’s not for everyone- but it kept thing’s lively!

The story is riveting and the narrative is excellent. If one enjoys WWII era stories this should be a must read.

A Good Spy Story with Romance
This was a good book. It kept my attention the whole way through and was kind of a thriller/spy story as well as a romance. Some readers have objected to these sexual scenes, but I thought they were fine and worked in the book to me. I liked that it had more actual war situations as well as romance.

Sylvia was the worst spy ever
Was she a German sympathizer she was sickening
Everything made her sick
The cell she belonged to was silly
There was no adventure or sypyng
Dieter was as unrealistic. As Sylvia
To say she grew yo with a whorey mom and witnessed her mom’s lifestyle how did kissing dieter make her so sick
Everything made her sick
She made me sick!

BORING
I just couldn't make it through 1/3 of this book without falling asleep. Just dragged on and on with nothing to hold my attention. Disappointing.
