The Paris Package

A Stella Bled Thriller, Book 1

By: A.W. Hartoin

Narrated by: Justine Eyre

On the eve of World War II, a honeymoon turns treacherous.

For Stella Bled Lawrence, being wealthy and stylish in 1938 is exactly what it's cracked up to be. She's blissfully unaware of the rising tensions in Europe even as she travels to Vienna on the eve of the Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass.

Stella and her husband, Nicky, witness the night's atrocities firsthand. Even as they watch the horror, they never imagine it will touch them personally, a pair of wealthy Americans on their honeymoon, but touch them it does.

In the chaotic aftermath, Stella finds passion and purpose in the form of a package with a Paris address. She promises to deliver it, not knowing what it contains or who wants it. Soon, Stella must decide who and what she's willing to sacrifice to keep a secret that has been quietly guarded for 500 years.

Fantastic

I loved everything about this book. The adventures and the characters. The narrator was great too. As soon as I finished I started the next book!

Loved it

Loved everything about it. Loved the adventure. Didn’t want it to end. Love the narrator.

Disappointing ending

considering the topic it ended up being a great read with a lot of interesting twists. I really enjoyed reading it, however, was so disappointed with the flat ending. They could’ve joined the resistance or many other endings but it didn’t work.

Infuriatingly Good

This is one of those books where you want to reach inside and shake some sense into the heroine. A naive couple on their honeymoon get far more than they bargain for as they are chased by NAZI’s across Europe. As the book went on, it kept getting better as the plot unfolded and the main characters “wised up”. Narration was well done and I very much enjoyed the listen.

Excellent story, great story telling

It is a great adventure the young couple have where they learn about each other and the read/listener learn about a piece of history that should not be forgotten.
