The Description

Her Secret War: Book 3
Publication Date: August 17, 2023

Her letters can save the country. But can she be trusted?

A double agent.

As World War Two rages, MI5 agent Sarah Gillespie is faced with her toughest challenge yet: handling Adeline Vernier, a mysterious double agent from Paris.

A dangerous mission.

Adeline’s coded letters could help the Allies defeat the Germans – but, in return, she demands that her boyfriend is rescued from Nazi-occupied France. Adeline is not above threatening to double-cross MI5 to get what she wants, leaving Sarah fearful for the millions of lives at stake.

Letters that could change their lives forever.

As they embark on a secret operation through Lisbon, they must tread carefully to avoid the clutches of the Nazis. But will they make it out alive, together? Or is the enemy closer than they realise?

The Review

Like many in Europe, Sarah Gillespie has felt the impact of World War II. As a civilian MI5 operative, she’s about to embark on a challenging task that will put her in the middle of danger.

Author Pam Lecky delivers a slice of historical fiction in The Last Letter from London. Tasked with overseeing a potential double agent, Sarah finds all of her preconceived notions cast aside.

Adeline Vernier wants safe haven for her Russian boyfriend and is willing to switch sides in order to make it happen. However, Sarah is leery of Adeline’s motives, especially since there is a strong sense of unpredictability. Pitting them against each other provides an interesting contrast, with Adeline being the sophisticated journalist and Sarah more of the quiet type.

The author sets the foundation for Sarah to face a moral dilemma caused by her job. With the volatile Adeline stirring up trouble, Sarah worries that her first field assignment may be her last.

REVIEW AUTHOR

Amy Wilson
Amy Wilson
My name is Amy W., and I am a book addict. I will never forget the day I came home from junior high school to find my mom waiting for me with one of the Harlequin novels from my stash. As she was gearing up for the "you shouldn't be reading this" lecture, I told her the characters get married in the end. I'm just glad she didn't find the Bertrice Small book hidden in my closet. I have diverse reading tastes, evident by the wide array of genres on my Kindle. As I made the transition to an e-reader, I found myself worrying that something could happen to it. As a result, I am now the proud owner of four Kindles -- all different kinds, but plenty of back-ups! "Fifty Shades of Grey" gets high marks on my favorites list -- not for character development or dialogue (definitely not!), but because it blazed new ground for those of us who believe provocative fiction is more than just an explicit cover. Sylvia Day, Lexie Blake, and Kristin Hannah are some of my favorite authors. Speaking of diverse tastes, I also enjoy Dean Koontz, Iris Johansen, and J.A. Konrath. I’m always ready to discover new-to-me authors, especially when I toss in a palate cleanser that is much different than what I would normally read. Give me something with a well-defined storyline, add some suspense (or spice), and I am a happy reader. Give me a happily ever after, and I am downright giddy.
