Duty Brought Them TogetherWill Secrets Destroy Their Love?
American Emma Hanson came to England to study at Oxford, but joined the Women's Auxiliary Air Force at the height of World War II. She is stationed at beautiful and historic Danesfield House west of London as part of the highly secretive Photographic Reconnaissance Unit.
Englishman Will Fleming is a handsome young artist who has been commissioned by the British government to record the changing landscape in paintings. His path intersects with Emma's when his real mission—tracking Nazi spies—leads him to Danesfield House, the target of a sinister plot.
Emma and Will become friends, but neither can reveal the true nature of their assignment. Can their relationship grow amid such secrecy? And can Will save Danesfield House—and Emma and her coworkers—before it's too late?

A SECRET COURAGE
A SECRET COURAGE, THE 1st in the London Chronicles series by Tracie Goyer. Powerful story in which Tracie has given us in depth look at W W II from a woman, a WAC, working to stop Hitler. We meet Emma an American working with the English as a photographic interpreter. Using a stethoscope and pouring over them at night, looking for anything to stop the war. Her brother Samuel lost to this war, and it was her way of avenging his death. By finding the German secrets and passing them on. The simple luxury of tea with a lump of sugar. Wherever she looked ruins, and broken dreams of homes and lives gone. Her dreams of home, and having love , seemed so distant. So many woman now without, for too many men gone. She meets a special man , he wants to tell her his true identity and the work with M 15 but when can he. He gives her a Sand dollar, the hope in her eyes
What it means to her, and the man that gave it to her. Tracie has done a lot of research and has crafted a unique and haunting story that will stay with one. The plot flowed, the characters were rich in detail. Given ARC by Net Galley for my voluntary review and my honest opinion.
