This is a page-turning story that takes readers to Denmark during the Nazi occupation of WW2. A refreshing setting for yet another WW2 historical romance.
Else is an American physicist working at the famous institute in Copenhagen. Henrik is a noble who trades his fame for anonymity by couriering messages between Denmark and Sweden. Theirs is a slow-burn romance, providing plenty of swoon-worthy and nail-biting moments.
The story highlights a local legend of the little mermaid. This legend is woven through Henrik’s story as he assumes a secret identity. And it is definitely not the Disney-version! As always, descriptions of locations create a realistic world for the reader and one can almost feel the same sensations the characters are experiencing.
This story has all the feels – from suspense to warm fuzzies. And readers can expect to revisit old friends from previous novels in the final pages.
It’s a great read for WW2 history lovers.
