Women in the Shadows

                 By. Jane Thynne


       Women in the Shadows is about a women named Clara Vine's who lives in Berlin. She is              half-British and half-German. She is an actress that is about to take her first leading role in a movie produced by the Nazis' official film studio. Even as she moves through the upper echelons of the Third Reich, Clara never stops acting. At cocktail parties hosted by the famous Joseph and Magda Goebbels, she collects key information for Britain, risking her life. But soon it's another young womens's life and it's abrupt end, that draw her attention. Clara knew Anna Hansen as a dancer and artist's model in the heady days of the cabaret scene. Then she became engaged to an SS officer. Attending one of Hitler's notorious Bride Schools, she was groomed as the perfect Nazi wife. When she is found murdered on the school grounds, her death is hushed up, one casualty among many in the lead-up to war. But Clara cannot fathom why Anna's death would concealed.
           I would recommend this book to anyone who likes things about Germany or anything that is historical fiction. Also if you like spies, or actresses.
           If I were to rate this book I would rate it 4🍫🍫🍫🍫 out of 5. I would give it a 4 because personally  I don't like nonfiction books very much. If I did I would like it more. I would really recommend you read it.
