Pamela Boles Eglinski

Bob Mayer, New York Times best-selling author says this about The Third Knife: "Eglinski spins a riveting story, dynamic characters, and a richly layered plot that encircle you at the start and refuse to let you go. For those who love historical fiction, this is an absolute 'must read'." Thrust into the world of sabotage and guerrilla warfare in WWII France, young patriots challenge Nazi Germany, the most savage war machine of the 20th century. This is a story of passion and espionage, and the brave souls who fought back-often only steps ahead of Nazi pursuers. The Third Knife is the prequel to Return of the French Blue, making it the first in the Catalina & Bonhomme Spy Series, and a must read
