Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. 3.5 stars rounded up. I was really on the fence whether to round up or down, but I like a lot of the author's other works, so I'm going to lean towards encouraging. I wasn't as emotionally engaged or as taken with the mystery as I wanted to be, but I did like both main characters, and I wouldn't be surprised if I enjoy the second book more. ( ) The cast of characters in the small town near London that James doctors are going to be fun in this series. I am intrigued by both James and his war-torn mind, and Leo and his spy upbringing. Their growing connection keeps pace with the murder mystery (mysteries) and our intrepid author managed not to lose me as they sorted out what really happened, and what to do about it. I am in love with them all and will absolutely read this as each book is released. Quirky -- I'm not as totally delighted by this book as some of Sebastien's others, but it's definitely growing on me. Love the tiny British village, love the damaged-but-healing community after WWII, love the odd characters who nonetheless create an interesting fabric of life. Not as wild about the spies -- mostly because I don't love the ruthlessness required. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

HTML: A jaded spy and a shell-shocked country doctor team up to solve a murder in postwar England. James Sommers returned from the war with his nerves in tatters. All he wants is to retreat to the quiet village of his childhood and enjoy the boring, predictable life of a country doctor. The last thing in the world he needs is a handsome stranger who seems to be mixed up with the first violent death the village has seen in years. It certainly doesn't help that this stranger is the first person James has wanted to touch since before the war. The war may be over for the rest of the world, but Leo Page is still busy doing the dirty work for one of the more disreputable branches of the intelligence service. When his boss orders him to cover up a murder, Leo isn't expecting to be sent to a sleepy village. After a week of helping old ladies wind balls of yarn and flirting with a handsome doctor, Leo is in danger of forgetting what he really is and why he's there. He's in danger of feeling things he has no business feeling. A person who burns his identity after every job can't set down roots. As he starts to untangle the mess of secrets and lies that lurk behind the lace curtains of even the most peaceful-seeming of villages, Leo realizes that the truths he's about to uncover will affect his future and those of the man he's growing to care about. .No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
