I loved this book. I hated it to end.
Kept me guessing almost until the end. Very well done story.
Wow! I've never read anything by this author before, but he is good. When first starting it I wasn't sure I'd like it, as I tend to avoid thrillers. But its World War II setting kept me going. Especially as I was familiar with the real history of the events and organizations depicted in the novel. I finished it in less than two days.
And it didn't hurt that the author has the same first and last name as my favorite, childhood cowboy hero.

Fascinating plot. Extremely well written. Introduced me to a new author, who is now one of my favorites. I am reading every one of William Boyd's books as quickly as I can find them.
One of the more gripping 'spy' novels I've read in a long while. Especially since the women in the novel emerge the stronger, in spite of flaws.
Several twists hold interest, and the ending is not completely laid out for the reader, provoking thought and imagination, afterwards.
