Her plot has ingenious twists which surprise the reader and her prose has pace.'Sarah Curtis, THE TLS'Widdecombe's point is a powerful one: that everyone is compromised in war and that only love commands real loyalty.'Wendy Holden, THE DAILY MAIL 'Miss Widdecombe's research is good and description of life in occupied Paris convincing.'Maggie Pringle, THE EXPRESS 'An ambitious novel,...stuffed full of interesting moral themes.'Caroline Moore, SUNDAY TELEGRAPH 'An intriguing story, which seems destined to end in disaster until the unexpected twist in the final pages.'GOOD HOUSEKEEPING 'I fully expected to want to put this book down after the first 20 pages.
