This is one of Ken Follett's best novels. I really enjoyed it.

Good adventure reading
I've read only a few of Ken Follett's books and this is one of my top picks of the few I've read. It is very adventuresome and I love the fact that he chooses women to be the spy gang in this one. This is another book that reads like a movie because a movie couldn't do it justice. There are some graphic scenes but otherwise the book keeps a good pace and is hard to put down. I have loaned it to women and men of different generations and everyone has really enjoyed it. It will keep you interested any place you choose to read it.
