The Ghosts of Rome is a standalone book in the Rome Escape Line trilogy. This book tells the story of an underground group in the city of Rome in March of 1944. The group, known as The Choir, is operating an escape line used to help smuggle Jewish people, allied soldiers, prisoners of war and other people the Nazis deem as undesirable out of the city. While the group is facing their own internal challenges, the Germans are set on bringing them down once and for all.

From the in-depth detail and descriptions, it was very apparent that this fictional story based on real people was very well researched by the author. At times the plethora of information was a little overwhelming, but in the same token, as this story line was not the typical WWII historical fiction plot, it provided much insight on subjects that I as a reader was not as familiar with. From the significant role that women played, the inner operations of an escape ring to the psychological warfare between some of the characters, this book is filled with intrigue.

This subject matter in this book was shared with care and great consideration and was very thorough, descriptive and well written. I found the story to be fascinating and enjoyed that it focused on different subject matters and perspectives than I am typically used to.

Thank you to Dreamscape Media for the advance release copy of the audio version of this book.

I had a hard time getting into "The Ghosts of Rome". Originally I loved that the narrators were different, but it felt draggy and I was not able to finish. :(

It was an intense audiobook with lots of drama, hisoric significance and intrique.
It is not nybusual genrenofnchoice but thought i would give it a try
The authors passion and interest is strongly shown in his writing.

I gave up about halfway through listening to this audiobook. Maybe I just wasn't in the mood, but I just couldn't get into it.

I'm sorry, I tried!

I received a free audiobook copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for a fair review.
