About this listen

In June of 1940, when Paris fell to the Nazis, Hitler spent a total of three hours in the City of Light-abruptly leaving, never to return. To this day, no one knows why.

The New York Times best-selling author of the Aimee Leduc investigations reimagines history in her masterful, pulse-pounding spy thriller, Three Hours in Paris.

Kate Rees, a young American markswoman, has been recruited by British intelligence to drop into Paris with a dangerous assignment: assassinate the Fuhrer. Wrecked by grief after a Luftwaffe bombing killed her husband and infant daughter, she is armed with a rifle, a vendetta, and a fierce resolve. But other than rushed and rudimentary instruction, she has no formal spy training. Thrust into the red-hot center of the war, a country girl from rural Oregon finds herself holding the fate of the world in her hands. When Kate misses her mark and the plan unravels, Kate is on the run for her life - all the time wrestling with the suspicion that the whole operation was a set-up.

Cara Black, doyenne of the Parisian crime novel, is at her best as she brings Occupation-era France to vivid life in this gripping story about one young woman with the temerity - and drive - to take on Hitler himself.

I can’t get over the terrible Scottish accents the narrator attempted and failed. Also, the stereotypical representation of the British and French characters was lazy. The most well written character was Gunther.

Good but

Great story in occupied France of a female sniper, gripping will she get out alive or won't she?

This story although fiction could still have happened although the likelihood would have been a woman from a different country. Had this main character been a man he would have been apprehended and faced the firing squad so the fact that this was a woman in my opinion the main reason to this story. Regardless of it being plausible or not it was still a great read so I certainly would give it a go.
