Enemy Sighted

Shadows of War #7

by C.W. Browning

As bombs fall across England, and dogfights fill the skies, a traitor lays his plans…

Evelyn Ainsworth has a problem. The documents left behind by her father hold an ominous secret, one that he wouldn’t entrust even to MI6. Torn between duty and loyalty, she’s determined to learn the truth. But an enemy spy is hunting her down, and now even England doesn’t seem safe anymore.

Flight Lieutenant Miles Lacey and his squadron are battling the Luftwaffe every day, but their frustration is mounting. The RAF is outnumbered four to one on fighters alone, and massive raids of German bombers are attempting to destroy every airfield in England. Despite their success in the air, the odds are taking their toll as they struggle to keep pace in the Battle for Britain.

An elusive enemy hidden deep within Whitehall, smuggled plans that Berlin wants back at all costs, and a desperate fight for freedom hanging on the wings of a precious few…

The fight for survival is just beginning.

Love this series! This is really a story of the Battle of Britain and the author does justice to it. Each book get stronger with each one when published. The historical facts are good as well. Looking forward to Book 8

CW Browning - Shadow of War (7)

I started reading these books from no1, from the very beginning these books captured my imagination, I simply could not wait for the next book, the words and descriptions made everything so real.
I’ve just reached the end of book 7 and I sincerely hope there is more to come, this is definitely not the last book in the series.

In this latest installment of the Shadows of War series, our protagonist, a young woman from England’s landed gentry, has to deal with traitors among her peers as well as Nazi assassins. And her love interest and brother, both RAF pilots, have their own problems with an over-matched Luftwaffe as the Battle of Britain begins.
It’s 1940 and she has already experienced the horrors of Hitler’s blitzkrieg through Europe, only to now face the same threat to her own country.
A historically accurate and compelling read, this episode will leave you breathless waiting for the next chapter.

I just love this WWII historic fiction series - sure hope another book is on the horizon because this one ended in a bit of a cliffhanger. Evelyn is back in England and is working to figure out what the documents her father left her are all about. And her love is a Spitfire pilot who is fighting the Nazis in the air every day. And add to that there is a spy trying to find out who she is! It all comes together in this riveting read!

continuing

I almost get the feeling I want this story to move along a little faster. This feeling is what the people at that time were experiencing. I know the history of WW2. I feel some anxiety about the history of Evelyn with only one book to go. This really is a tribute to the author.

I would give it a 3.5. This is a set up book in my opinion. Something we need leading into the next book/books. It’s not as Norway or France action packed at times I get a little lost with names (and code names). The longer it is between books the hazier some characters and their nicknames get.

Great series . Rushed to order book 8 only to find there isn’t one . When can I expect to find out who Henry is and if the main characters survive ?
