About this listen

At the end of the Second World War, Dottie Tanner locked away the past, blocking out the heartache she experienced as a special operative working alongside the Resistance.

Sixty years later, Dottie remains independent and proud of everything she has achieved, but time is running out. Watching the V.E. Day Celebrations on television reignites a flame. After a lifetime of resisting the lure of France, she decides to face her demons.

Taking her granddaughter Maude along for company, Dottie’s trip down memory lane soon turns into a voyage of discovery that tests lifelong friendships and means facing old foes. But how will Dottie cope when her whole world is turned upside down?

Overall I enjoyed this audio book although I felt it took quite a while to get going. The war time France element was really good though. Great narration, it’s just a shame it was padded out with so much of the present day.

I typically really enjoy any novel set around the resistance. However, nice as it was, I didn't think the narrator did the story justice. It sounded kind of patronising almost. I don't like giving a low star review, but for me it was very distracting. Separately the novel was a great and the narrator was clear and concise. The match didn't quite work this time.

A nice little tale to fill the winter evenings.
