I love reading historical fiction books that focus on WWII. So I was looking forward to reading the latest book by Mario Escobar. However, I was disappointed as I traveled through the pages. The story was slow and I felt like I was trudging through. The characters did not appeal to me, so I did not feel connected to them. The story line was scattered and not well developed. I can appreciate the author’s research efforts and his desire to share the story that peaked his interest following a trip to Saint Malo.
