I read this book over a few days and enjoyed it. It’s set in Lisbon during the Second World War and from the beginning of this spy novel you get the sense of not being sure who you can trust.
The main character of Elisabeth de Mornay is likeable; at the end of each chapter I wanted to read on to find out what would happen to her.
There are quite a few characters in the book - they are all listed at the beginning of the book which is really helpful. It was also an interesting read as although it is fiction, the author has stayed close to the facts of that time too.
I would recommend this book to others; it had me intrigued from the beginning and was very atmospheric. I could definitely see a series of spy novels in the future.
