What the Critics Say

"Sheers's alternate reality is frighteningly convincing and dripping with heartbreak. This is an outstanding debut." (Publishers Weekly)

    Story
    "Highly Original"

    I was very impressed with this audiobook and found it both entertaining and thought provoking. The alternative scenario of the Germans winning the war was very convincing. I even found I had some sympathy for the invaders as it brought across the futility of war and the suffering of both sides.

    Audible Listeners who have an interest in the history of the Second World War would, I am sure, enjoy this book. The Narrator, Richard Coyle, was excellent.

    Story
    "Nazi invasion?"

    I found this book to be a completely original twist on what might have happened if Germany had managed to invade Britain during WWII and am glad my daughter recommended it to me.
