New Release: When Memory Whispers by Johnnie Alexander

What will she risk to save the man she loves?

Marie Wyatt ran away from her farm girl past in search of fame and fortune and found herself in wartime London working as an Allied courier. Whether disguised as a middle-aged British housewife or playing a role on the London stage, she acts her part to its fullest. But when a routine mission turns deadly, a mysterious German agent becomes her unlikely savior.

Plunged into a dangerous game of deception, Marie relies on her acting talent to pass false information to the Nazis. Yet the line between duty and loyalty blurs when the German agent is imprisoned in a Florida POW camp with Axis soldiers who consider him a traitor. Marie embarks on a desperate mission to save him before he’s fatally injured.

In a postwar world still reeling from conflict, the couple’s lives are again threatened by a past enemy. Will they ever find the peace they crave? Or will the echoes of war destroy them?

Plummet into a heart-wrenching tale of courage, treachery, and a love that defies all odds.

MY REVIEW

The story goes from 1997 back to 1944 but does it seamlessly. Marie Wyatt is Sparrow, a spy during WW2. She has placed herself in danger, been betrayed and then falls in love during the worst part of the war.

The characters are well-developed with lots of layers. I was drawn into the story right away. My heart ached for Marie and Rolf's predicament due to their ongoing love, in spite of their circumstances.

The historical details are weaved wonderfully, bringing the story to life. It's a wonderful story that will touch your heart.

I received an ARC copy from the author; a positive review is not required. All opinions are my own
