Book Beginnings and Friday56
I'm enjoying this different but interesting WW2 story.
The Escape Game
About the book:
A Board Game Holds Keys to Prisoners’ Escape
Full of intrigue, adventure, and romance, this series celebrates the unsung heroes—the heroines of WWII.
After the Nazis started the bombing blitz of England, Beryl Clarke puts her college on hold to return to Leeds, care for her mother, and work as a secretary at the Waddington game company. While she endures the war at home, her brother James fights the enemy in the air. When he is shot down, injured, and captured, James reunites with a former college friend American POW Kenneth Bordelon, and they plan to escape the Nazi prison camp. Beryl knows there is a board game with escape plans being delivered to POWs by the Red Cross. But how can she let them know about the game's secret without revealing the information to the enemy?

Book Beginnings
Jillian picked up a piece of Bubble Wrap to cover the last of her Grandma's treasures.
Friday 56
"James, do you know why the guards killed that NCO a few days ago?."
My thoughts so far
This is different to what I expected, but I am still enjoying it.
