This was a fascinating look at some bizarre happenings during WW2. A good mystery and I liked the main sleuth too.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Hope you enjoy this one, eicuthbertson.

This is another one I've been wanting to read. Thanks for thinking of me!

Embarrassing! I've had this book a long while! No doubt I was reluctant to let it go till I had my own copy since it's to do with genealogy. I've read it now twice and mostly enjoyed it as with the author's Pale as the Dead which I'm releasing today too - somewhere in Burnaby.

Goodreads has no record of this book but I can at least record it here. Found on the seniors' college's shelf.
Gives us a brief intro into the "Aryan Babies" breeding program of the Third Reich and the possibility of similar thinking taking place in Britain. I don't think we realise how unlikely a victory by the Allies really was and that there would have been many people creating an acceptable persona in case of a German victory. Even my parents, so far away in Western Canada, weren't that convinced of an Allied victory, just of the vital necessity for one.
Given Natasha's background, her tendency not to trust people is quite believable but she can't go on too many more fictional years without moderating it or she really will go totally doolally (love that word). I wonder how many families live their lives on two different levels of truth - a public apparent one, and a private very secret one - like the Blakes. I really think I'd have divorced Steven years ago. Natasha has been lied to on so many levels that coming to grips with life is going to be difficult unless she finds a stable influence soon.
