A review by jaironside
Infiltration by Rosalind Minett

5.0

There is an inherent charm to Minett's writing. A real sense of place and feeling without indulging in sentimentality. It's impossible not to feel for Billy and the acuity with which we see the changing world through a young boy's eyes is uncanny. The continuing distance between Billy and his aloof mother feels very authentic and as with the first book, the historical detail is richly woven in. This is an absolute treat for fans of Michelle Magorian's Goodnight Mr Tom. Utterly spell binding.
