Mattie McGary has a grudge. Though she has promised her husband not to volunteer for any other dangerous assignments, she decides to assist in her godfather Winston Churchill's operation to execute SS General Reinhard Heydrich. Her godfather would never have approved of her involvement either. She now has six-year-old twins to consider. When the operation fails, Mattie conceives her own plan to kill Heydrich, putting herself in greater danger than even she realizes.
Wow! This is an action-packed, intense story that brings the reader right into the world of WWII espionage. Well-developed characters, a tough heroine, and great attention to historical detail fills these pages. The cliffhanger ending lets you know that Mattie's story is far from over and that new dangers lurk behind the corner.
My only gripe is the omniscient narrator telling me things that will happen in the future. It's a personal bias of mine, so I can't fault the authors. I just find it draws me out of the story and away from the present happenings.
That aside, this is a superb read and I would want to go back and check out previous Mattie adventures.
