If this book was just the story in WWI, it might have 4 stars - but the story that takes place in the 40s ruins it for me. It felt like the author was already thinking of the future mini-series and adding extraneous, unrealistic romance and personal drama, that for me, took away from what should have been the real story - the seriously interesting story of the women spies of WWI.

Read this book when it first came out and loved it so much. Recently decided to listen to it on Audible, read by the author. So glad I did! Just be careful if you are listening to it while driving - I was laughing so hard I thought I was going to lose control of the car! And don't listen to it while at the gym or any place in public, unless you want to make a fool of yourself. I really needed a good laugh, and this really did the trick...

Revisiting a lot of my old favorites from when I was a kid, and sharing them with my daughter. This one still holds up and is even more clever than I remember. So far, this one is my daughter's favorite out of “Mom's Old Classics”...
