Arriving to a city swathed in red flags and crawling with Nazis, Georgie feels helpless, witnessing innocent people being torn from their homes. As tensions rise, she realises she and Max have to act – even if it means putting their lives on the line.

But when she digs deeper, Georgie begins to uncover the unspeakable truth about Hitler’s Germany – and the pair are pulled into a world darker than she could ever have imagined…

A Different Take on WW II History

If you like WWII historical fiction than this is the book for you. It is a take through reporters eyes. A view we don't often see when it comes to WWII and pre WWII. The book is well written, the characters are well developed. The narrator is great. Overall I think this is a great read.

Historical fiction!

Good story great reader

I enjoyed this book. It was slow starting and took me a bit to get into it but half way through it picked up. The ending is good. Hard to imagine what it was like during WWII. The reader did very well!

Wonderful and kept my attention

At first I though the`main character. Might be a silly girl just romancing pre war Berlin. I was so wrong. What a strong brave woman she turned out to be. Innovative and loyal and ethical. I loved most of her characters and the evil ones were well developed I will read more from this author Deserves 5 stars Not afraid to tell the world of the atrocities of the nazis.

An entertaining book about journalists stationed in Berlin in 1938 -+1939

This not a historical novel, The author doesn’t focus on the events that led to the rise and fall of the nazis. Some events (Krystallnigt

Excellent

I seldom submit reviews but must for this book. I found the story exciting, the performance excellent and simply was sad when the book came to an end. Truly a must read/listen!

Hard to put down

I enjoyed this book very much with one exception. The deneument escape story was totally implausible and took this book from being great to just really good. But I still liked it...I guess fiction has its right to poetic license.
