Very realistic look into what may have been a very real possibility

4 stars

Obviously it's fiction, but apparently the plot described in the book was a very real fear of the SDECE, and like in the book may have been impossible to discuss without sheer luck on the investigators' part. Brilliantly written, and I really love the opening describing actual events to anchor the book in reality.
