The Mozart Code

“Because beautiful things must find completion.”
Love and money. Two of the most dangerous things. Especially when one is supposed to be faked. Meet Lady Sophia and Simon Barre, a married couple that is only together to keep Simons estate. What happens when Sophia and Simon are in a dangerous situation that will mark her a traitor?

When Sophia came to terms with the fact that she loved him, it made me cry. I loved it. The way it all fell together was so beautiful.

A sweeping spy suspense thriller set in post-WW2 Austria. Simon and his wife-of-convenience, concert pianist Sophia, are in Austria after the war ends, and each has a task to do. A top-secret one, that neither can speak of to the other. Both keep denying the feelings that they have for each other, and the secrets between them are driving them further apart. But when Sophia disappears, only Simon will be able to find her. Can he come in time?

I literally couldn't put this book down. Every page built the suspense deeper and kept me stuck to the page. I need a hard copy so I can re-read it again! Whew. Wonderfully intense and colorful story.

Content: violence, a very intense torture scene
