Set in Berlin during the height of WWII, a British spy is sent to the city to discover who murdered his predecessor. Thriller with a touch of romance. It is one of my books set in WWII Germany.

Klou Sounds brilliant!! Great choice 4y

This was the first book that came to mind for the prompt tyrannical government. I only read it once as a teenager but almost never want to read it again, it was so depressing! 😟

CarolynM I completely agree with you. I read it when I was 15. Once was more than enough. 4y

LostInSpace I read 1984 at the start of the pandemic and 3 month lockdown, kind of apt reading it at that time! 4y

Klou Another George Orwell pick!! I read this this spring and really liked it, but then it was one we started in school a few years ago and never finished and I was so eager to read the rest. I can see what you mean though; it wasn't the brightest of topics. 4y

BkClubCare I was substitute teaching and got a class where I was instructed to read aloud from this book. I almost couldn‘t do it! Almost started crying with the weight of it all. It was a tough day... those kids didn‘t know me, didn‘t have a trust in me. It was incredible for me to help keep it all together with the weight of the responsibility I felt I had to give. 4y
