*Kirkus Reviews on Faith and Beauty*
‘This is the fourth of the addictive ‘Clara Vine’ novels, set in
Berlin on the eve of war. Clara is a half-German British agent
with access to the inner circle of Nazi wives. Portraits of
women such as Magda Goebbels and Eva Braun are ruthlessly truthful,
but drawn with compassion. It is early 1939, and Clara is
drawn into investigating the murder of a girl at the League of
Faith and Beauty finishing school. Brilliant’
*Saga magazine on Faith and Beauty*
