"Gritty and moving, Flame of Resistance is a beautifully written story of Nazi-occupied France that raises challenging questions about redemption, perceptions, and the cost of doing the right thing in an evil world. I highly recommend it."

— Karen, 11/29/2013" a little predictable but good "
— Gerardine, 3/2/2013" I listened to this on CD. Didn't like the reader from the start, but thought I could get past that. I pushed myself through most of it, but just gave up. Too much religion, too predictable corny love story, unbelievable spy work. Did learn a bit more about the D-Day invasion plans. "
— Debra, 1/11/2013" I enjoy historical fiction and this is one of the best I've ever read. The characters truly come to life and the author led me to feel their emotions. It was tough to put this one down, especially as the ending unfolded. "
— Scott, 12/13/2012" This book remained me of a Ken Follett novel. It captured my interest immediately and held it throughout. I suggest you read it right away! "
