“A gripping and thrilling tale....INCREDIBLE!.” Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

When working for the British Secret Service, Sarah Gillespie can trust no one, not even her closest friends...

London, 1941

After losing her family to a Nazi bomb attack back home in Ireland, Sarah Gillespie joins the British Secret Services to bring them justice.

Partnered with American undercover agent Lieutenant Tony Anderson, Sarah embarks on a dangerous mission that takes her from war-torn London into the black mountains of Wales. But when one of her team is revealed to be a German mole, and enemies begin to close in, what price will Sarah have to pay to save her country—and herself?

A heartbreaking and completely addictive page-turner about one woman’s bravery in WW2 Britain, perfect for fans of Kate Quinn's THE ALICE NETWORK, Suzanne Goldring's MY NAME IS EVA and Ariel Lawhon’s CODE NAME HÉLÈNE.

I rely on Historical Fiction books to shock me, to surprise me, to teach me. Most important of all, I want the story to make me think and learn. Her Last Betrayal had me googling for more information. Her Last Betrayal had me sitting in silence, tears falling. I don't know how the members of MI5 and SOE were able to do what the did. I didn't realize how challenging it was for them. Total respect to the unsung heroes of WW2. Her Last Betrayal was an action packed spy novel. The story had me on the edge of my seat, not only because of the action but because of the betrayals. I doubted the honesty of so many characters. If I could doubt the integrity of characters, how in the world could those on a real mission during WW2 trust those that were supposed to have their backs? My mind was blown more than once by the direction the story took. I can't tell you how many times I was left thinking, "I didn't see it coming." Sarah Gillespie hadn't planned on joining MI5. She kind of fell into it. She was kind of pushed into in the book Her Secret War a story of espionage at Supermarine. She has impressed members of MI5. Now they need her help to find her father, a leader in the IRA working with the Nazis. She will be risking everything to take down the man that abandoned her and her sister during the bombing of Dublin. Adding to the dangers is the conflict with her partner in the mission, an American called Anderson. She had to prove herself to him over and over again making for a lot of drama. The mission will be dangerous. The struggles will be many. The suspense is a nail biter. Sarah's doubts plague her. Who can she trust? Who can she get to listen to her? All of this made for a book that had me hooked. I couldn't put it down. When I reached the end; I could only hope that Sarah and Anderson will be paired together again for another wild ride.

Exciting and suspenseful this story is a fast paced page turner. Espionage, spies and danger all around. Even when you don't know if you can trust your partner on a mission...who can you trust? Once again we join the Irish girl from the tracing factory Sarah Gillespie on another dangerous mission for the British secret service. She is sent to Wales paired with an obnoxious American Lt. Tony Anderson. She soon learns there is a mole on the team, but who could it be? Is it Anderson or someone else? We follow her on her mission through close calls, faked identities, and even a bit of romance. She's sassy, independent and always gets herself into trouble. Dodging bullets, following spies and working undercover she brings a lively and spirited presence to the story. I enjoyed reading this book and I would recommend it. Thanks to Pam Lecky for writing an enjoyable story, to Avon books U.K. for publishing it and to NetGalley for making it available to me.

Smart Woman + Skeptical Man = Suspenseful WWII Espionage. Over a period of just 18 days, Sarah, daughter of an IRA Republican, is partnered with a more experienced naval officer in some dangerous espionage work. Both are dedicated to sucess but there's a lot of friction. A story that is fresh and mostly unpredictable, with imaginative twists and turns.
