The London Restoration

by Rachel McMillan

Book Overview

The secrets that might save a nation could shatter a marriage.

Madly in love, Diana Foyle and Brent Somerville married in London as the bombs of World War II dropped on their beloved city. Without time for a honeymoon, the couple spent the next four years apart. Diana, an architectural historian, took a top-secret intelligence post at Bletchley Park. Brent, a professor of theology at King's College, believed his wife was working for the Foreign Office as a translator when he was injured in an attack on the European front.

Now that the war is over, the Somervilles' long-anticipated reunion is strained by everything they cannot speak of. Diana's extensive knowledge of London's churches could help bring down a Russian agent named Eternity. She's eager to help MI6 thwart Communist efforts to start a new war, but because of the Official Secrets Act, Diana can't tell Brent the truth about her work.

Determined to save their marriage and rebuild the city they call home, Diana and Brent's love is put to the ultimate test as they navigate the rubble of war and the ruins of broken trust.

Historical Fiction

This is a historical fiction. I DNF this audiobook at 54%. I do not love the narrator of the audiobook, but what really made me DNF it was the writing style of the book and I did not feel the characters where developed. At 50% I should feel something feel the character and I did not. I also did not feel the book was going anywhere. I was very bored with this book. I hate giving bad reviews when I get ARCs, but one thing I always say is I am going to give 100% honest reviews. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
