I am a Karen White fan, especially of her Tradd St series so when I saw this was a historical novel with WWII as part of the backdrop- I was hesitant. This is not generally her style. I was not disappointed however. Part of White’s charm are her quirky characters which she was able to inject into a serious novel. The book switches from Madison, a Southern writer in London helping her old college friend Arabella with a project about WWII fashion to the past and the story of Eve and Precious. They were two models in London/Paris during the war. Maddie is there to interview Precious who is about to turn 100 and is distant kin to Maddie as well as a family friend to Arabella. The story is filled with intrigue from the war and romance in the present as Maddie tries to find out what happened to Eve with help from an old college crush. I was really engaged by this book and couldn’t wait to figure out the twists ! Definitely will recommend. Thank you Netgalley for the arc.
