À propos de cette écoute

In an enthralling new historical novel from national best-selling author Kate Quinn, two women - a female spy recruited to the real-life Alice Network in France during World War I and an unconventional American socialite searching for her cousin in 1947 - are brought together in a mesmerizing story of courage and redemption.

It's 1947. In the chaotic aftermath of World War II, American college girl Charlie St. Clair is pregnant, unmarried, and on the verge of being thrown out of her very proper family. She's also nursing a desperate hope that her beloved cousin Rose, who disappeared in Nazi-occupied France during the war, might still be alive. So when Charlie's parents banish her to Europe to have her "little problem" taken care of, Charlie breaks free and heads to London, determined to find out what happened to the cousin she loves like a sister.

It's 1915. A year into the Great War, Eve Gardiner burns to join the fight against the Germans and unexpectedly gets her chance when she's recruited to work as a spy. Sent into enemy-occupied France, she's trained by the mesmerizing Lili, the "Queen of Spies", who manages a vast network of secret agents right under the enemy's nose.

Thirty years later, haunted by the betrayal that ultimately tore apart the Alice Network, Eve spends her days drunk and secluded in her crumbling London house. Until a young American barges in uttering a name Eve hasn't heard in decades and launches them both on a mission to find the truth...no matter where it leads.

    I loved this story, everything you could want from a historical novel, once again impeccably researched. Insightful, harrowing at times and heartrending. It also makes one long for a time before mass tourism and sadly reminds us of the ravages of war in all its aspects, that we forget so easily for peace of mind but that it is so important to remember lest we carelessly find ourselves at its brink once again.
    The reading was brilliant, the accents excellent, bringing all the characters so vividly to life!

    Epic!

    Good but cheese. The story is amusing, historical facts interesting but the emotional arc of the characters a little too fake and cheese
