Themes in the story: heroism, fear, good and evil, deception, revenge, sacrifice, honor, romance, suffering, survival, war, trust, hope, self-control, and loyalty. The story is based on real events that began in October 1944. Over-all, I believe the story is entertaining, thrilling, and adventurous. I believe it is possible the average reader is just like me. I am not going to catch-on to inaccuracies about the French language and customs. One of them is in regards to the inaccurate history of some of the story. This is a second aspect of why I love this story: it is a great love story. Elizabeth is very much in love with her husband. She is a no-nonsense, intelligent, savvy, beautiful and, she is handy during a torture scene using her brooch pin. I love this story! I love it because of the two main characters: Guy and Elizabeth.Įlizabeth is one of the toughest female lead characters I’ve read. The time period of this story is leading up to the D-Day, Normandy, France invasion of June 6, 1944. Elizabeth returns to France hoping to find Maxwell and solve the mystery of what happened. Atkins prepares Elizabeth with accurate clothing, a special make-up compact, brooch pin, and a pistol. SOE officers Vera Atkins and Colonel Maurice Buckmaster ask Elizabeth to return to France and find Guy. The Germans had intercepted his rendezvous with another agent. Guy Maxwell is an SOE on a mission in France when he is shot in the left leg.
