THE LAST AGENT IN PARIS

MY THOUGHTS: 

It’s 1940 and World War II is in full swing.  Nazi soldiers have invaded the streets of Paris.  Noor and her family are forced from their home, the safest place for them to be is England.  Noor is determined to save her country from being over taken by the Germans.  She becomes a wireless operative in England and is quickly assigned to a spy network in her beloved Paris, her homeland.  As a member of the spy network she spends her time walking through the destroyed streets of Paris.  She risks her life everyday sending broadcast messages back to London.  But as members of her network are captured, her mission becomes even more dangerous.  There is a mole in the network and Noor doesn’t know who she can trust, but she does know she must carry out her mission to save her country, her family and survive.

The Last Agent In Paris, written by author Sharon Maas, is a phenomenal story of loss, survival and loyalty.  I immediately felt attached to Noor and her family.  I wept for them many times for what they went through.  This was such an amazing story that broke my heart an put it back together piece by piece.  I was amazed that this story was inspired by a true story, that in itself made me cry over and over again.  Once again I am astounded by the writings of Maas.  She had me overwhelmed with emotion,  page after page as I read through this book.   This is a book that definitely landed on my list of one of the best books I have read this year.  I will remember this book for a very long time.  I highly recommend this phenomenal read.

As the bombs rained down on Paris, my family fled before the Nazis could take us. I never thought I’d see my beloved home again. But I’ve come back to fight for the people I love. And now, I’m the last agent standing. The freedom of the world rests on my shoulders. 

Paris, 1940. As Nazi soldiers march down the Champs Elysees, Noor’s heart is shattered. Her family is forced to flee their home to the safety of England, and as Noor watches the French coast disappear in the distance, she vows to do everything she can to stop Germany from devouring her beloved country.

Training as a wireless operative in England, Noor’s perfect French makes her the ideal candidate for undercover work in her beloved Paris, and she is soon assigned to an illustrious spy network led by a mysterious man named Prosper.

Day after day, Noor walks the treacherous streets of Paris looking for safe places to broadcast messages to London. But Nazi officers lurk around every corner, and Noor’s heart thunders in her chest as she evades detection, tightly clutching the briefcase containing her radio equipment. She knows it would take just one stop and search for her life to be over.

With each passing day her mission becomes more lethal as, one by one, her fellow agents are captured. Someone is betraying them, but who? And when Noor becomes the last agent in the network, can she keep the links with England alive, to help win the war?
