“The incarceration and abuse of dissidents in the Dachau concentration camp was scorned as left-wing propaganda.
‘You didn’t actually enter the camp did you, Mr. Sinclair? I think you’ll find that reports of mistreatment are vastly exaggerated. Our delegations to Germany have come back with only praise for the order of German society.’”

These books take me so long to read. Why you ask. Problem is I keep getting pulled into the fascinating history and historical characters the writer seamlessly blends into a very interesting mystery. I have been afflicted with this quirk my whole life- if something intersts me I cannot resist researching . Ms.Gentile weaves history and fiction so effortlessly. I find the characters and their description as well as the time so believable.
Great series.

A wonderful and talented writer. ...more
