PositiveReally Into ThisSafe Houses contains storylines between past and present and Dan Fesperman writes them in a way that they play into one another perfectly. While reading, questions start fluttering around in your mind about the future storyline. As the book goes on, the two stories become more tightly wound. For me, the 1970’s Berlin portion was the more fascinating of the two – I loved reading about the politics of Europe at that time.
