Publisher's Summary

From the New York Times best-selling author of The Orphan's Tale.

How have I been lucky enough to come here, to be alive, when so many others are not? I should have died. But I am here.

It's 1945. Surviving the brutality of a Nazi prison camp, Marta Nederman is lucky to have escaped with her life. Recovering from the horror, she meets Paul, an American soldier who gives her hope of a happier future. But their plans to meet in London are dashed when Paul's plane crashes.

Devastated and pregnant, Marta marries Simon, a caring British diplomat, and glimpses the joy that home and family can bring. But her happiness is threatened when she learns of a Communist spy in British intelligence and that the one person who can expose the traitor is connected to her past.

Too much coincidence

The story was plausible with some interesting twists, however, for me, there were too many coincidences.

ok

You can easily predict what's going to happen in this one.

As a mother, I can't imagine waking up alone in the house with my baby asleep in another room and not checking on her first thing. That was weird.
