Summary
A moving Second World War story of three lives forever changed by one fatal choice.
England, 1943. Lost in fog, Pilot Vee Katchatourian is forced to make an emergency landing where she meets enigmatic RAF Airman Stefan Bergel and then can't get him out of her mind. In occupied Poland, Ewa Hartman hosts German officers in her father's guest house while secretly gathering intelligence for the Polish resistance.
Mourning her lover, Stefan, who was captured by the Soviets at the start of the war, Ewa is shocked to see him on the street one day. Haunted by a terrible choice he made in captivity, Stefan asks Vee and Ewa to help him expose one of the darkest secrets of the war. But it is not clear where everyone's loyalties lie until they are tested....

Interesting story let down by poor narration
The story of two young women in the Second World War - an English pilot and a Polish resistance worker - and their love for the same man, is engaging and interesting. But beware - the sample narrator is NOT the same as the narrator for the rest of the story - the sample is just a tiny part at the start. The main narration is poor - the voice is quite child-like and not really appropriate (presumably trying to suggest the young women, but sounding more like a schoolgirl), there are many mispronunciations (of English words), the German and Polish accents are amateurish and the narration is 'clipped' at the end of each sentence, which becomes quite irritating. I finished the audiobook because I wanted to know what happened but it was such a relief to be free of the narration.
