“This novel delivers what fans of the genre expect: tension, intrigue, and action. It also delivers some things often missing in historical fiction: a complex examination of the heroes and villains on both sides, and a look at the fine line between self-preservation and collaboration.”
“The Tower at Petite Vigne is a believable tale of daily life under an oppressor’s thumb. Unlike in many ‘hero’ novels, the characters here are real people, and, as in real life, some of the good people die. The story moves quickly, and towards the end it is especially hard to put down.”
“Author Stone’s style lends the book almost an element of play-staging – we know what’s going to happen in the big picture, but we don’t know how the actors will behave on the stage.”
The Tower at Petite Vigne: A Novel of Occupied France is available as an e-book formatted for the most popular e-book readers, and as a paperback!
