Mother Daughter Traitor Spy by Susan Elia MacNeal
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
5 out of 5 - I'll tell you to read it, even if you don't ask me
Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine, Bantam for this advanced copy. All opinions are my own.
This is the story of a mother and daughter duo who infiltrate the Nazi movement in California in the 1930s and 1940s to try to take them down from the inside. Based on the true story of Grace and Sylvia Comfort, this book takes some literary license and changes names, but the author takes care to discuss at the end what was true and what was changed.
I really enjoyed learning more about what was happening on the homefront prior to WWII. While I knew there were inklings of this story in history, I had no idea how prevalent and deep rooted the plans were for a Nazi led America. This has made me more interested in this side of history and I will be looking for more information.
For more information about the original mother and daughter, I found this article.
