It's heavy and chilling but for the historical context and central mystery, each plot point and moment of discomfort is earned

This is one of my favorite historical fiction books that I have read recently. Sarah was an incredible main character, and I loved watching her journey from scared little girl to a competent and crafty spy. All of the characters were utterly believable and I flew through the pages, disappointed when I was done. I would recommend that this book be made into a blockbuster, but no on-screen film can live up to the experience of reading this book.
