Saffron Courtney and Gerhard von Meerbach are split apart due to the Second World War and find themselves on different sides.
Courtney's War is the first book that I have read by Wilbur Smith but it won't be the last one.
The book deals with the challenges both Saffron and Gerhard as they try to survive the conflict and still maintain who they really are
The author has clearly researched well and this comes across in the book without distracting from the story which moves along at a good pace.
This isn't the first book in the series but that is not an issue as the author cleverly weaves enough of the backstory into the narrative again without it feeling like overload.
Overall thoroughly recommended
