Lees is an author I always enjoy reading. Her powerful historical fiction draws me into another place and time and keep me engaged throughout the story as it unravels.
This one is set in 1942 in Egypt and in the Villa of Eden. Nadia will work as a undercover to discover the threat the Nazis pose while parties and more bring people together.
Beautifully written and this one is set in a dual time line which will ties incredible women together.

I was excited to read this book because I don’t think I’ve ever read a book set in Egypt, especially during World War II.

However, I didn’t gel with the author’s writing which resulted in my not connecting to the characters. As a result, there were times I found myself a bit bored.

If you’re looking for a historical fiction then you might enjoy this. Sadly, it just wasn’t for me.

I received an ARC from the publishers via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you!
