I need a sequel to this. I need to know more about what happened after that night flight. What did the resistance member do during the invasion and the battles that followed? What role did they play, and how did they find each other again after the war. This book seriously needs a sequel because the epilogue was not enough. I need more.

An interesting WW2 story about a downed air force pilot in France who is recruited into the underground French resistance. Tom Jaegar us everything Hitler was hoping for in the new Aryian race; tall, blonde, strong, except he was American. Brigitte was a French woman wishing in the American embassy before Paris fell. She was forced to turn to prostitution to survive in occupied France, opening her grandfather's home as a German-only brothel. When Tom's plane is shot down, he is recruited as a spy for the French resistance, everything is going according to plan, until feelings very involved.
The book read a little slow at first, but once you get about halfway through. But once the plot thickened, oh man, I didn't want to put it down!
