Her Last Betrayal

WWII stories involving MI5 are among my favorite sources of media at the moment, so I was incredibly excited when I received this book. It turned out to be just okay.

(Potential spoilers from the first book below)

Sarah is on a mission to find her Nazi-sympathizing father who left his daughter (Sarah's sister) for dead in the wake of a bombing. He catches onto the scheme quickly, eventually ordering his men to kidnap Sarah. There are a surprising amount of plot points in this book. Some work better than others, but nothing feels more forced than the romance.

Yet again, I realized after I started reading that this is not the first book in the series. It can sort of read as a standalone, however, I might have been better able to connect with the characters reading in order. Overall, I struggled to get invested in the book as a whole, especially after some particularly harsh and unnecessary remarks about Catholicism.

A huge thanks to Harper Collins/Harper 360 for sending me an ARC to read and review!
