I enjoyed reading this second book in a series and meeting up again with Mireille, Amelie, Jim and Norah, among others. The time frame is during WWII, reflecting the lives of the people in Britian and how even women were motivated to do their part for the war effort, even to the point of endangering their own lives in resistance efforts, nursing and so on. A sly guy slips in to wreak some havoc - read and see what becomes of him.
Although this is meant as a historical fiction narrative, I appreciated that the author addresses certain combined emotions and issues as: fear, chaos, pathoes, friendships and family ties, revenge and forgiveness, abuse and more, creating a few 'hold-your-breath' moments. And, would they ever find that missing orphan?
A satisfying read earning 4 stars from me.
