Above Suspicion,
By James C. Pichon (Slidell, LA USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Above Suspicion (Hardcover)
I thought this was a very good read but not a great read because to me the last chapter seems contrived. This Helen MacInnis early WWII suspense novel was an exciting page turner but not as good as her other WWII novel set in Britany, France. Some readers higly recommend this novel. An author who has published a best books list stated that she reads this novel every five years. Once is enough for me, but I can understand why one can feel that way. It is a delightful book because of its form and style and it just flows very well. Its two main chatacters, Richard and Frances Myles, are two fun loving, young and witty people. Richard teaches at Oxford and they seem to be having a great life there. They love to travel and have lots of travel experience and so they are recruited to find some lost British spies in Europe about three months before WWII starts. They get into some tight spots but always manage to survive. Most of the evil things committed during WWII were not known until after the war. That being said, wouldn't this be a different book with the benefit of hindsight.
