Beneath a Scarlet Sky by Mark T. Sullivan
5.0

WWII Historical fiction can be a bit overdone. I’ve read a lot of them. But this one is special because it follows the true tale of Pino Lella, a young Italian turned spy for the Allies. It shows how humanity did and did not exist and how everyday people dealt with the atrocities brought to their front doors via war.

I especially like that Sullivan provides us with insight into what happens to the real-life characters post WWII.

I do feel that the book was long, but in my opinion the longevity is necessary. All of Pino’s story deserves to be told and heard.
