Summary of this Book... | ||
In the beginning chapters of this book, the main character Rhoda sounded a bit warped to me since she secretly visited her husband Peter’s friend Archie’s wife Helen, thinking she was her husband's mistress. The facts were different, however, and the plot was rather annoying and somewhat farfetched, but since Peter and Archie were in the World War II together with Peter in a prison camp for a very long time, Peter’s odd behavior, I gave to PTSD. Peter’s secret was an idiotic one, that shouldn’t be a secret in the first place. Helen comes second to him for believing his falsehoods. This is all I am going to say about the plot in order not to give it away. Was all that drama necessary? I can’t say because I haven’t been in a prison camp and I have only found out about World War II through my reading. The story, however, is a good one, and Rhoda and Helen’s friendship has the most believable scenes. In fact, this story’s scenes move the plot along, together with the flashbacks. There are three points of views that tell the story, and the writing style, even if it sounded a bit dated, is enjoyable. | ||
I especially liked... | ||
the fact that the story had to do with World War II. I usually like the themes that come out of those experiences. | ||
The n/a of this Book... | ||
is Davina Blake, a writer of historical fiction, who also writes under the pen name Deborah Swift. | ||
Further Comments... | ||
I am hesitant to recommend or not recommend this book, although I enjoyed reading it. The characters' behaviors were annoying to me at times, but those annoying things about them were somewhat explained eventually. | ||
