I absolutely loved this book. I was a little nervous when I sat down to read it because it was Book 5 of the Grace Sextet and I hadn't read any of the others. However, you managed to weave in enough information that (a) didn't overwhelm the pacing at all and (b) gave me enough information that I had no trouble following the story. I instantly felt an affinity for Grace. She's smart, incredibly brave and resourceful. And I LOVE the fact that she's psychic. You don't often see that in novels like this. You created a compelling character in Dirk as well. Despite being a German officer in the war, I found myself rooting for him. He's a man of integrity and he genuinely loves Grace. The historical background was terrific. I had no idea German prisoners were kept working in France after the war ended. Operation Paper Clip was handled very well too. You have a way of bringing these historical facts into your story in such a way that I didn't feel as though I was reading a history book. The action, intrigue and espionage, especially with the Russians, kept me on the edge of my seat. Overall, a satisfying read. I'll definitely be reading the rest of this series.
