Run Time: 7 hrs and 37 mins
Summary:
Louise gets recruited to be the go between for a possible informant. Somehow, the tale goes deeper, landing her in a place to tangle with both super rich people and mafia lackeys.
Additional Comments:
- Technically, this is Lousie Pearlie’s second adventure, but I somehow got the series out of order. So, this is the third story I’m hearing of her exploits as a government girl.
- Jenny Hoops is awesome. Her performance is spot-on for the character.
- Louise has a lot of heart, but she’s still normal enough for a 1940’s woman.
- The series is an interesting peek into that time period in American history. (high patriotism, rightful fear of communism, beginnings of social change) If reading the word colored gives you blood pressure spikes, maybe skip the series.
- It’s not my favorite of the series, but it’s still pretty good.
- The main character gets into some fine scraps, but she pulls out of it all right.
Conclusion:
Good entry in a great historical fiction series set in WWII Washington, D.C..
