The Heart of the Ritz by Luke Devenish

hopeful reflective medium-paced

• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

A surprisingly  light-hearted, mostly hopeful book which is based enough on truth to provide an educational foundation of the occupation of France in WWll. At the very least, it will likely inspire you to read more about it afterwards.
