Spitfire: A Livy Nash Mystery | M. L. Huie
6 posts | 3 read | 3 to read
How far would you go for vengeance?
It's V-E Day 1946 in London. World War II is long over, and former spy Livy Nash is celebrating with her third drink before noon. She went to war to kill Nazis. Dropped behind enemy lines as a courier, she quickly became one of the toughest agents in France. But her war ended with betrayal and the execution of the man she loved. Now, Livy spends her days proofreading a demeaning advice column for little ladies at home, and her nights alone with black market vodka.
But everything changes when she meets the infamous Ian Fleming. The man who will create the world's most sophisticated secret agent has an agenda of his own and sends Livy back to France with one task: track down the traitor who killed the only man she ever loved. Livy jumps at the chance, heading back to Paris undercover as a journalist. But the City of Lights is teeming with spies, and Livy quickly learns just how much the game has changed. With enemies on every corner and ever-shifting alliances, she'll have to learn to fight a new war if she wants to conquer the past once and for all.

Thanks to late night feedings and Quarantine-and-Chill, I raced through M L Huie‘s spy thriller novel, SPITFIRE. Heroine Livy Nash has the expertise — and flaws — to make for a compelling lead, one that I rooted for to the last chapter. Check 👏 this 👏 out 👏 #thriller #spythriller #quarantinebookclub

Pleasantly surprised by this debut novel and the first in a new historical series. Livy Nash is a British spy during and post WWII. She is out for revenge for the death of her leader/lover while also striving to retrieve a master spy network list. She‘s tough, determined and flawed. There were some unbelievable moments and times when she frustrated me, but I was entertained and eager to see how it turned out. 4/5⭐️ #CrookedLaneBooks #NetGalley

Excited to read this post WWII historical fiction mystery/thriller...a debut novel. This is the first in at least a two-book series (this one is out 1/7, second in 9/2020) featuring what sounds like a very strong, gutsy female protagonist...Livy Nash. Diving in! 😊🎉

This book takes you on quite the adventure! I‘m typically a slow reader many times taking a week or two to finish a book...not the case here! I finished this one in 48hrs! I couldn‘t put it down! The cast of characters are not only likable but felt so real. The adventure that you go on with Livy is thrilling, breathtaking and daring! Definitely a 5 star rating from me! See my full review on goodreads!
