About this listen
From USA Today bestselling author Gayle Callen comes a fascinating historical novel of three courageous young women who aid a desperate British spy during the German occupation of Guernsey Island in World War II.
In 1940, Germany seizes control of Guernsey without a fight—but not without resistance. Innocent young teacher Catherine is forced to house a German officer. Shrewd waitress Betty seeks to elude the persistent Nazi determined to conquer her. And courageous nurse Helen cares for her patients—both British and German—while hiding a British spy in her seaside cottage.
Their fight against the injustices being enacted on their island home brings the women, the spy, and their enemies together in one night that will change all of their lives forever. Though none of them could foresee that the battle they fought that night would reach across time to 1997, when the tragic fallout ensnares Helen once more.

Unusual wartime story
I loved the entire storyline. The narrator was good and you felt really involved and cared about what was happening.

poor ending and narration
the narrator's voice was very monotone when she wasn't in character and the end of the story wasn't realistic compared to the rest of the book

Daring girls of guernsey
Story good but the voice of the narrator drove me mad. Honestly grating. So sorry to be rude but sounded like child's voices through most of it.

Great Story
I really enjoyed the story and the characters. Found it a bit confusing and unclear at the end..had to go back to the first chapter but still slightly confusing ... Catherine died but not clear whether she was murdered or what?
The Narrator not bad but a bit too samey with each character.
On the whole a good story. 👍

Gripping.
As a lover of ww2 fiction, I found this gripping, extremely well written and really just a page turner.
