review 1: I have had this book in my to read pile for some time now, and I now realise I should have read it sooner. This is the Story of Betty, a young American girl who goes out to Germany just after WW2 to sing for the troops who remain there. On the way she meets a US Army "Photographer" Frank, who has a double role as an agent. Other people say this is somewhat implausible, but I do not find this implausible at all., and if you do, it's a novel and some level of poetic licence has to come into play. The story is well written and both mystery and romance are there in equal measure. Although I started to guess who the protagonist was near the end I still feel the suspense built up well and had me entralled. The ending was excellent and came as a complete surprise to me. This is a... more Christian book, written by a Christian author, but this is not overwhelming and fits into the story well. If you like this genre then I could highly recommend this book, as a light ready for a rainy afternoon.
review 2: Historical fiction always holds a fascination for me. Perhaps it is the feeling that life was so much better/easier at that time. This story takes place during the war, just as it was over. Many impressions, either rightly or wrongly, were given and received by those left behind as well as those who fought for everyone's freedom. The author has woven these ideas into a story that is hard to put down. Definitely made me want to listen to Wagner! less
