Reviewed on Amazon as author requested - 5/17/16 This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. This book was set at a difficult time but was written so the trauma did not much affect this reader as the main protagonist seemed guarded by an angel. This protection from the horrors of the time left characters slightly underdeveloped but made for comfortable reading. The beginning set the scene for the rest of the book to build up to chronologically - another device making this a comfortable read. This review was written for LibraryThing Member Giveaways. This is basically a love story. Love stories are not my genre of choice, however, this book was so much more than that. It is a love story that survives the horrors of the holocaust. It brings home to us the fact that there were good people, living in Germany at that time, who did not worship Herr Hitler. näyttää 4/4 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
Rachel Fischer looked out at the Essex marshlands as her train sped towards London's Fenchurch Street station on a hot summer's morning in 1966. She was expecting just another uneventful day at the Polish Embassy, where she worked part-time as a translator. She thought about her parents, Izaak and Rebekah, who she'd last seen on the day before the Krakow ghetto was liquidated by the Nazis in 1943. She had no idea what happened to them and feared the worst. Her search for the truth had proved elusive - until now. She never spotted the man who jumped on the train out of the shadows at the last minute. He sat patiently, one carriage back, awaiting his moment as the final steps of his master plan were being played out. It would certainly not be just another day at the office and by the end of it, lives would change forever. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

This book started out strong. I was instantly interested in the family, music and their lives. However, after about halfway through, it almost seemed as if the author lost focus. In the second half, the book has no natural progression and the scenes are stilted and unnatural. The author also continually foreshadows what will happen next, which I find super irritating. I’d rather just read it happening. I think this could be a great book with some re-writing or editing. ( )
