Power is pornographic

Can love sustain light when the forces of evil close in?

Paris, 1939-1942. A fallen angel is trapped in the web of German Occupation. The deadly noose of Nazi control grows ever tighter, ensnaring her and two of her lovers, a bullfighter and a musician working in the fledgling Resistance. Can she save them and the Jewish widow and her child that she has come to love, or will betrayal take them all?

My Review:
This was a really interesting take on a fallen angel. She has two lovers and a grieving mother that she care for. She has weaved herself into the lives of humans when Nazi's were in power. There is definitely something about books that take place during WWII. They bring certain memories of gas chambers, etc. A fallen angel could not fall any lower. This was unlike any other book that I have read before. I am giving this book a 4/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
