I am reviewing a copy of A Picture of Hope through Barbour Publishing Inc, Barbour Fiction and NetGalley:





Nellie Wilkerson is a journalist who has spent the bulk of the war in London,  photographing mothers standing in milk lines, but she’s bored so jumps at the chance to go to France, where the allied forces have only recently landed.    There she enlists Jean-Paul Breslau of the French underground to take her to the frontlines.  It is there they come upon an Orphaned little girl name Claire, the only surviving memory of her family and town, after the Nazi’s killed them all.






Soon Nellie and Jean Paul get Claire to a Covenant that they heard takes children like Claire, but it isn’t long after they get there that they learn that the Nazi’s want to liquidate the Nuns and if the nuns are taken away, the children will be too and will certainly be killed, because these Mongloid Children would certainly be considered to be undesirable in the Nazi’s twisted idea of perfection, they wouldn’t be considered pure Aryans.





A power novel set in World War 2 France,  A Picture of Hope is a must read for fans of historical fiction, especially fans of fiction set in World War 2.




I give A Picture of Hope five out of five stars!




Happy Reading!
