I found this book a fascinating read. The book is written about events in 1936 and 1979 so partly a historical thriller, and partly more modern.
The story tells of Phil and his grandmother Emma. Phil plans on visiting Europe but things don't work out quite as he plans and it looks likely that he will no longer be able to go as he doesn't have the funds. His Grandmother hears about this and decides it is an opportunity to make her wish come true. Emma asks Phil to accompany her on a trip to Europe to relive some of her past.
The two of them set out on this trip together and as they visit places Emma begins to tell her story, of her life in 1936. As they go along they discover things which put them in danger, they do not know who they can trust and it becomes more of an adventure than they planned.
I really enjoyed reading this book, it was a really gripping story that kept me hooked.
