I've read The Great Deception by Joy Chambers which is mainly set during World War II. In 1947 newlyweds Cole and Shelly Wareing receive an unexpected visitor who knew Cole during the War. The visitor, once a friend of Cole, is now intent on killing him having tracked him down to a farm in Australia. Cole then disappears to the United Kingdom and Shelly tries to follow him. Then the reader is taken back to the War on a tale of espionage and intrigue where Cole and two of his friends infiltrate Nazi Germany. Cole takes on the identity of a SS officer and meets a beautiful and mysterious woman Laetitia de Witt and they form a nauseatingly romantic bond that makes his mission complicated. The "suspense" builds as the reader knows something will go wrong hence the reason Cole's former friends seek retribution following the War. The reader (and everyone else) finally learns the truth but we could have done without so much of the "romance". 31/2/5Thursday, March 21, 2013
