Into the Fire

Summary: An exciting WWII spy novel
Review: This was a very exciting novel of wartime suspense. Rosie, a fluent French speaking young widow, is dropped off in Nazi occupied France in order to help the Resistance and to determine the Nazis' V-2 rocket plans. Her discovery, capture and subsequent escape are vividly described. This is an exciting yet literate, professionally written thriller that you will find hard to put down. The characters are very real, flesh and blood instead of the usual cardboard cutouts. For those of us who want an exciting story written well, this novel certainly qualifies. It is far above many of it's competitors.

Why do the Brits seem to write these so much better than others?
