High as the Heavens

A British nurse in WWI German-occupied Brussels, Evelyn Marche spends her days at the hospital and her nights working at a café...or so it seems. Eve's most carefully guarded secret is that she also spends her nights carrying out dangerous missions as a spy for a Belgian resistance group.

When a plane crashes as she's en route to a rendezvous, Eve is the first to reach the downed plane and is shocked to recognize the badly injured pilot as British RFC Captain Simon Forrester. She risks her life to conceal him from the Germans, but as the secrets between them grow and the danger mounts, can they still hope to make it out of Belgium alive?

High as the Heavens

A spellbinding tale of romance and intrigue set against the backdrop of WWI. Kate, a classmate, is truly a gifted author.

Great story!

I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I was disappointed in the narrator. I had trouble discerning which characters we’re speaking. I have listened to several books by this author and the narrators were much better; however, the content of the book made up for it.

The debt of the story was enthralling

Unfortunately the narrator was distracting due to her lack of French pronunciation. That took away from the drama and made me wince.

Intrigue at its best.

All the characters and their courage captured my attention! It was a clear mix of loyalty and betrayal.

Horrible accent!

Wow! Crazy that they couldn’t find a narrator to say the few basic French words without butchering them. It was very distracting. Okay plot - the romance was a bit cheesy. Didn’t appreciate the Christian undertones - they weren’t needed as they didn’t add to the plot. Overall great way to learn about the resistance movement in German-occupied Belgium. I would still recommend the book with the above caveats
