The Golden Doves
By Martha Hall Kelly
The Golden Doves moves backward and forward in time. It involves the story of two young women who worked for the French resistance during the war. Once caught, they were interned in Ravensbruck concentration camp. Forward to just after the war when both women are now leading very different lives. But they soon find themselves drawn into working together on a mission that leads them into a new danger.
Martha Hall Kelly has spun a very absorbing tale involving the hunt for war criminals that will have you turning the pages to find out what happens next. Many authors write stories that involve espionage during the war, and this book has a different take that is done with equal layers of suspense and intrigue.
If you have read and enjoyed Martha Hall Kelly's earlier books, you will enjoy this one. While it was a little slow to start, and I had to remind myself to pay attention to the changing timelines, it was well worth the read.
Thanks to Random House Publishing-Ballantine Books and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
