Dec 28 Mother Daughter Traitor Spy

Have you ever let a book linger on your tbr shelf for way over a year, then finally read it, and start kicking yourself because you didn’t read it the minute it arrived? Well, that’s what happened with this book

One of the things that makes this book so compelling is that it’s based on a real life mother-daughter spy team, so I was immediately immersed in their riveting and empowering story. It was also heartwarming to see how the relationship between Veronica and Violet deepens as they work to bring down a Nazi group in California.

The setting of Los Angeles is not typical for a WWII novel, and this one illuminates an often overlooked place in history. I learned so much from this book and thought it was such a great change of pace for a historical fiction set during WWII. Although, let’s be honest, I never tire of learning a new story, no matter where it’s set!

I absolutely love, listening to mysteries and thrillers because it heightens the emotions and suspense so much more and this story was no different. The characters came to life even more and I also feel like it makes the story go so much faster.
