1 post | 1 read

After the Nazis started the bombing blitz of England, Beryl Clarke puts her college education on hold to return to Leeds, care for her mother, and work as a secretary at the Waddington game company. While she endures the war at home, her brother James fights the enemy in the air. When he is shot down, injured, and captured, James reunites with a former college friend, American POW Kenneth Bordelon, and they plan to escape the Nazi prison camp. Beryl knows there is a board game with escape plans being delivered to POWs by the Red Cross. But how can she let them know about the game's secret without revealing the information to the enemy?

The Escape Game: Heroines of WWII | Marilyn Turk

This was a very interesting story. I was expecting more about the escape games, but they were only talked about in a few chapters. It was a very clever way to help the POW‘s escape! Now I‘m curious to find out more how these games were made and used during the war!

I received this book from Celebrate-Lit for my honest review.
