Historia
It is 1936, and Nancy Wake is an intrepid Australian expat living in Paris who has bluffed her way into a reporting job for Hearst newspaper when she meets the wealthy French industrialist Henri Fiocca. No sooner does Henri sweep Nancy off her feet and convince her to become Mrs. Fiocca than the Germans invade France and she takes yet another name: a code name. As Lucienne Carlier, Nancy smuggles people and documents across the border and earns a new nickname from the Gestapo for her remarkable ability to evade capture: The White Mouse.

Great WWII French Resistance Story
Revisado: 11-09-23
Thoroughly enjoyed this novel. Was particularly pleased with the author’s notes at the end explaining truth vs fiction. It was nice that the most important things were NOT fiction and in fact really happened.
The narrator was fabulous.

The Golden Doves is a great historical fiction listen. I particularly like stories of the German occupation in France. The heroines, the Doves, are full of character. The narration by Saskia Maarleveld was outstanding. She is my favorite narrator.

Good story, a bit frustrating and drawn out in parts. A little predictable but the narrator is great and she is very good at performing the different characters voices. I would recommend and will listen to the next book in the series.

This book was very good, kept your interest, and narrator was great. It is not a gripping, edge of your seat book. It is a book depicting life in the Deep South. It follows generations of a family. Very enjoyable listen and I recommend it to those interested in learning about the history of the South.

The Rose Code is an excellent listen. The narrator is exquisite and the story line is captivating. I’d read other books on Bletchley Park and seen movies, but this is by far the best.
The author’s commentary at the end of the reading puts everything in its perspective. This is a wonderful historical novel. I highly recommend it.
