I enjoyed this book, partly because it takes place in Washington, DC in the fifties. I was born in Washington DC in the fifties. Kate Quinn has put enough references to the place (
Griffith Stadium, The Hecht Co., Colonial Beach) to make this book ring true. I enjoyed the separate chapters devoted to the inhabitants of the Briarwood, also. They kept the story moving along. There are a few 'woke' moments, but conor enough to make this book unbearable, All in all the story is good, moves quickly and doesn't insult your intelligence.
