The Secret Keeper by Siobhan Curham

adventurous dark emotional hopeful informative inspiring tense medium-paced

5.0

I read too many books to have favourites, but The Secret Keeper by Siobhan Curham is definitely up there in this year’s great reads! I loved it! Based on true events, which is always a bonus for me, Elena Garcia is recruited into the spy network for the Americans in World War II. 

Although faced with risks daily, we also get to see how exciting life as a spy during the war can be. The men and women who undertook these roles throughout the wars were just so brave and dedicated to helping their fellow countrymen, with their secret missions and many of them played different characters to infiltrate themselves into enemy lives. 

I loved reading about the part Leslie Howard played in the war and yes, when I’d finished reading, I had to research more about what had happened to him. I won't spoil it if you are unaware of the story but it's definitely interesting. 

Reading more about the spy network and the role they all played definitely makes me want to read more and immerse myself in a world, where I might have quite liked to be. 

I am lucky enough to be a part of Books on Tour for this book, so thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the opportunity to read and review an ARC of The Secret Keeper by Siobhan Curham.
