I am not sure why someone would give this 2 stars and not leave a comment. This is an excellent book. The author weaves a captivating story full of intrigue. It would appeal to any history buff especially those who are interested in World War II. I can see this book being made into a movie and anxiously await the next book in what I hope is a series.
