Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 01 25, 2014
Beautiful, descriptive writing - fast-paced (at a gallop) - fascinating plot twists and turns - wonderful, strong, fully-developed characters - poignancy - tender love story - wit - angst - satisfying - heart-stopping - extremely well-researched.  It has it all!I simply cannot find enough superlatives.  This is one of the VERY BEST books I've ever read in this genre.  Ms. Putney has  amazing talent.Really impressive.  Really.**And I love the little vignette about Helene and Karl.  (I would have felt that something was missing had their story not been nicely tied up.)
