I wavered between three or four stars for this. It was well-written and enjoyable but I had a hard time believing the premise and couldn't decide whether I liked the main character or was annoyed by her. In addition, I had a hard time with so many people hitting on a married woman but I think that was personal preference.
I listened to this on CHIRP. Great detail. Great voice to listen to. Loved the characters. Very entertaining!

When I started this book, I wasn't expecting to like it. It seemed a pretty run-of-the-mill historical thriller, set in pre-World War II Europe. But by the end, I realized that I was enjoying spending time with the characters, and I'm probably going to read the rest of the trilogy. Stella and Nicky have a sort of Nick-and-Nora-Charles or Tommy-and-Tuppence-Beresford vibe about them and their relationship, and I really liked that.

Not really a bad book, but you have to be in the mood to go through it. I mean, Stella is... not a very likely heroine and you'll need to suspend disbelief to buy into soooooooooo many coincidences and strikes of good luck :P
Nevertheless, if you don't take it very seriously, this is a fun read and quite entertaining.
Justine Eyre's narration is really good and makes it easy to keep listening to the story ;)

Where is the rest?!
This was such an exciting and adventurous plot. I just need the rest. It's just stopped when things were getting good. Waiting for the next volume!
