The Spy Who Loved: The Secrets and Lives of Christine Granville by Clare Mulley
5.0
What a book! What a story!
It took me a while to get into the groove with this one, mostly because of Polish names that were unfamiliar and hard for me to keep track of as I read. I kept going and really could not put it down. Christine herself was fascinating, as were her effects on other people. What really made it special to me was discovering so much that I'd missed about the history of WWII itself, particularly in Poland and farther south. The author's hard work on research is evident. I may have to write her a thank you note.
