I had no idea what this book was about before I opened the cover. I‘m glad I didn‘tu, because I might not have read it. I‘ve read so many books from the WW2 era that I didn‘t think there could possibly be another good one. Boy, was I wrong. The fact that there were many stories within one story was amazing. It is possible to learn more about a topic you thought you already knew a lot about. I also love the budding relationship in this book.
