The story is well told. Great literary skills. It seems to be an accurate historical novel. I couldn't image what story there was to tell when WWII had ended and Peter and Lise were still alive. During the way I kept wondering who was going to make it to the end of the war. The story after the war did not excite the same intensity as the earlier spy novel but had it's own power with the unbelievable actions of several leaders to discredit the work and sacrifice of Peter and Lise. I enjoyed the book from beginning to end.

Historia
Welcome to Madison Park, a small community in Alabama founded by freed slaves in 1880. And meet Eric Motley, a native son who came of age in this remarkable place where constant lessons in self-determination, hope, and unceasing belief in the American dream taught him everything he needed for his journey to the Oval Office as a Special Assistant to President George W. Bush. This charming, engaging, and deeply inspiring memoir will help you remember that we can create a world of shared values based on love and hope.

Historia
More than a million listeners have thrilled to Bill O'Reilly's Killing Lincoln, the can't-stop-listening work of nonfiction about the shocking assassination that changed the course of American history. Now the anchor of The O'Reilly Factor recounts in gripping detail the brutal murder of John Fitzgerald Kennedy—and how a sequence of gunshots on a Dallas afternoon not only killed a beloved president but also sent the nation into the cataclysmic division of the Vietnam War and its culture-changing aftermath.
