Story
Life is a constant struggle for the 18-year-old Nowak twins as they raise their three younger siblings in rural Poland under the shadow of the Nazi occupation. The constant threat of arrest has made everyone in their village a spy, and turned neighbor against neighbor. Though rugged, independent Helena and pretty, gentle Ruth couldn't be more different, they are staunch allies in protecting their family from the threats the war brings closer to their doorstep with each passing day.

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.

Painful Unrealistically Romantic, returned.
I desperately tried to power through this story to find out what happened with Emma and Jacob after the war from the first book, The Kommandants Girl. But I just couldn’t do it. The book is not bad when it is just focused on Marta’s situation/predicament but it is basically all about her falling in love with some American servicemen and being hopelessly in love after spending just a couple hours with him. It is so cheesy and unrealistic I finally had to just give up. I have never rolled my eyes more in a book. So if you are all about romance, maybe this is your jam, but I thought it was pretty terrible.

Read-critical for preservation of freedom
This work of fiction is based on a very possibly true sequence of events as a result of communism. The infiltration, lies, deception, are rampant in emerging communist countries.
As so masterfully woven into this story is that American ideals “freedom “ saved Europe and England.
Our country is not perfect but the role America plays is to be respected and preserved.

There are a few mistakes I.e. we did not have duvets in this country at the time of the story it would be sheets and blankets
The author talks a great deal about the scents/smells of different people, however when Paul carries Marta in the forest after shooting the bald man she does not recognise his smell and is surprised when he reveals himself, even though his “familiar aroma” is mentioned as soon as he holds her agin
