À propos de cet audio

In spring 1918, Lieutenant Colin Mabry, a British soldier working with MI8 after suffering injuries on the front, receives a message by carrier pigeon. It is from Jewel Reyer, the woman he once loved and who saved his life - a woman he believed to be dead. Traveling to France to answer her urgent summons, he desperately hopes this mission will ease his guilt and restore the courage he lost on the battlefield.

Colin is stunned, however, to discover the message came from Jewel's half sister, Johanna. Johanna, who works at a dovecote for French Army Intelligence, found Jewel's diary and believes her sister is alive in the custody of a German agent. With spies everywhere, Colin is skeptical of Johanna, but as they travel across France and Spain, a tentative trust begins to grow between them.

When their pursuit leads them straight into the midst of a treacherous plot, danger and deception turn their search for answers into a battle for their lives.

A Downton Abbeyish spy thriller that held me completely spellbound. I binge-listened to the audible version which was brilliantly narrated by Sarah Zimmerman. I hung on every word and was sorely tempted to hike up the speed and listen chipmunk-style when things got tense. You'll be happy to know I resisted the urge...barely, choosing instead to savor every nuance of the exceptional storytelling.

Intrigue, danger, romance! Plot twists galore! I was thunderstruck numerous times. I'd get pretty full of myself, thinking I'd figured something out only to have Breslin blow me away with something so much better than anything I could imagine. And all the rich historical details -- be still my heart! Lots for a historical fiction connoisseur to swoon over. The carrier pigeon angle was utterly fascinating -- especially in view of our 21st century communication devices. Riveting stuff.

And then there's the hero and heroine. Colin with his misplaced sense of loyalty that set my heart aflutter even though I didn't want him to be that noble. lol And Johanna who has her own agenda. I wasn't sure about her at first but she grew on me, especially as the author wove a beautiful redeeming thread into her story. Theirs is the kind of love story that has the power to shred a sensitive reader's heart if she's not careful.

Another stunning novel from an author who knows how to deliver a delicious mix of intrigue, inspiration and the sweet promise of romance.

Stunning!

This a story of laughter and tears, mystery and intrigue, love and duty. I enjoyed listening all the way through the story, laughing and crying along with the joy and pain of the characters as they struggled to find the answers to their hearts' desires. Set in wartime Europe, Joanna and Colin set out to find a woman who holds the answer to their individual searches for love and family. A great story about faith, hope and love.

Faith, Hope and Love
