The Invisible Woman by Erika Robuck
5.0
Who was Virginia Hall? Well, once you read The Invisible Woman, you will never forget her name. Virginia, code name Diane was the most formidable force within the Special Operation Executive (SOE) organization. Tasked with conducting espionage, sabotage, and reconnaissance in Nazi infested France, Virginia became an expert in organizing resistance movements. Virginia’s unfaltering courage and self sacrifice will be remembered once you finish the novel.
A heavy hitter of historical fiction, The Invisible Woman took me a while to get through to the finish. There were so many characters with real names along with code names, so that slowed my reading somewhat. However, it is that depth of characters that really tied the narrative together.
The Invisible Woman kept me on the edge of my seat, with impending doom around every corner. I still have goosebumps just thinking about Virginia’s trials, tribulations, and grief from the loss of some of her comrades. I experienced tears of joy and sadness while reading the book and I just cannot imagine how she overcame all of the obstacles that faced her.
The author, Erica Robuck, has done a fantastic job of researching the life and times of Virginia Hall and compiling all of that research into an exceptional historical fiction.
An unforgettable read, The Invisible Woman will leave a lasting impression on its readers. Five stars. Extraordinary.
