Reviewing this book is really tough for me because I really don't do spoilers and I'm not sure how to add to the publisher's blurb without doing so. A couple of things I could just toss out there: while the year is unstated, it has to be before hitler began gassing people, The Germania society was a real thing, one of the protagonists is someone who is beneath contempt. Even so, the book is very well written and I kept on reading even when I wanted the contemptible one to be blown up. The character portrayals are that ell done!
I requested and received a free ebook copy from BooksGoSocial via NetGalley. Thank you! ( )
