This book is an extremely challenging read. I personally wasn’t a huge fan of its 430 pages, as I say it is aimed at the 15–17 readers of this nation.
The book is about two SOE who are known by their code names, Dart and Tamar; they are involved in the Dutch resistance. I thought that it was clever that it wasn’t set in the Second World War era but suddenly it became 1995. A girl called Tamar finds a box from her Grandfather, yet not everything is what it seems …
I wouldn’t recommend this book for a young reader, however it would be good on a long car journey.
