"An excellent book from Lucinda Riley, the story takes you on an emotional journey, read it in 3 days couldn't put it down. Looking forward to reading more of Lucinda Riley's books now. Past the book onto my 81 year old mother that lived through the war, I've asked her to give me her thoughts on the novel when she's read it."

    " Irritating in patches - how many times can you describe the Yorkshire moors as bleak or say someone was going out for supplies? It was an alright read, but with an element of something lacking. "

    " Really enjoyed this book.... An interesting story of what it was like in war time Paris for those trying to work underground fighting the Germans. Not sure everything was believable but it did hang together well as a storyline. "

    " Very good story told of English resistance in France during World War II linked to present day families. Where I deducted stars was for the main female character who seemed incredibly naive or something - I could not believe she would be as gullible as she was in some parts. "

    " A comfortable and enjoyable read, predictable with no real suprises, nevertheless the writing is good enough to have kept my interest to the end. Lucinda Riley is now on my list of authors I can trust to tell a good story well. "
