Ms. Stewart has done it again. “In the Presence of Her Enemies” is another in her run of amazingly detailed and incredibly well-researched suspense novels. This time, in post-WWII Amsterdam, a few years removed from the war. Her descriptions transport the reader to the setting, immersing us in the time and place of her choosing. I want to be a writer like her when I grow up!

If you liked the first two books in the series, you will love this one set in post WW II Holland. Suspense moves the story forward with familiar characters like Tamar and Margo and their unpredictable relationship.
