Mary’s Language Skills Could Help End the War in the Pacific Full of intrigue, adventure, and romance, this series celebrates the unsung heroes—the heroines of WWII. Mary Wishram, an orphaned Yakima tribal member, aches for her brother who suffers in a POW camp in the Philippine Islands and her Japanese friends who languish in a relocation center. Determined to end the war by any means necessary, she employs her language skills to become a spy. Leaving Camp Pendleton for the South Pacific, she faces escalating threats of peril to help bring her loved ones home. John Painted Horse, a proud Navajo, struggles with the loss of his father who died in WWI for a country that didn’t consider him a United States citizen. Though his home state doesn’t offer him the right to vote, he joins the Code Talker program at Camp Pendleton. Thrust into mounting danger in the South Pacific, he hopes to bring long overdue recognition and honor to his people, no matter the cost. Will these two wounded souls find healing from their past traumas and a deeper relationship with God, before it’s too late? Or will they lose their chance at love, and everything they hold dear?

This story had so much potential. I was very disappointed that there wasn‘t much information on the Code Talker program. Mary wasn‘t very convincing as a spy. The whole story just didn‘t seem to blend very well. I did enjoy John‘s spiritual input and his encouragement of Mary.

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