Harmel's forger worked in coded names and false papers; McMorris's heroine wields misdirection and vanishing acts—same war, different smoke and mirrors. You loved Eva's cerebral resistance, her quiet cunning against the Reich. Here, espionage meets stage magic: illusions become weapons, sleight-of-hand becomes sabotage, and a woman's ingenuity threads through dual timelines that peel back wartime secrets with the same reflective ache you craved.
The romance? Forged in shared peril, tender yet unflinching—echoing Eva and Rémy's passion without the sentimentality. Moral gray areas run deep, begging for your next book club debate.
If you thrive on understated heroism and ethical ambiguity, this is your next obsession.
What Readers Are Saying
"THIS BOOK WAS SIMPLY WONDERFUL IN EVERY WAY!! I have read all of this author's novels and enjoyed them but this is my new favorite! Fenna Voss is a determined and unique character I can root for!!" — Dorie - Cats&Books :), Goodreads
"The initial half of the book was outstanding. Beginning with Fenna’s stage experiences in the US in 1943, going back to 1928 for a glimpse of her younger years, and moving back to 1943 London, where Fenna was trying to settle into her role as an inventor for the Allied troops - the content was relatively fast-paced, and kept me invested." — Rosh ~catching up slowly~, Goodreads
"Fenna Vos learned how to survive at a young age... This was such a well written and extensively researched book." — Debra, Goodreads
