An Affair of Spies (by Ronald H. Balson)

Having read every book written by the author, Ronald H. Balson, I was looking forward to getting lost in this one. I am a huge fan of the WWII historical fiction genre and always look forward to a different aspect of the war. That was the case with this one. While the writing was a little cumbersome, I did appreciate getting to know Nathan and Allison and the focus of nuclear fission. I enjoyed the information the author shared about the discovery of a letter by Albert Einstein to President Roosevelt about the possibility of a nuclear chain reaction. While romance was an aspect, it was not over the top and too cheesy.While not my favorite book by the author, it still provided a background into the aspects of WWII and the dangers people were willing to face to help bring an end to Hitler’s reign of terror.
