A review by mbp
A Game of Lies by Rebecca Cantrell
4.0
(4.5)
I loved this - the evocation of 1936 Berlin, the impact of politics & fear upon relationships - including that of Hannah Vogel & Lars Lang. The evolution of their relationship is what really kept me turning the pages.
My only complaint is that several mystery plot elements were not fully explained or resolved. The meaning of Peter Weill's flower list is never fully revealed. Is it a coded list of members of an underground group? And Project Zephyr? Saratov?
I can only hope that the author was setting the stage for the 4th Hannah Vogel novel with all these unanswered questions. And I can't wait to read it, to see where she takes Hannah, Lars, and Anton.
