    About this ebook

    De Oorlog van Eve is een serie van twaalf novelles, korte boeken van ongeveer 20.000 woorden per boek. Operatie Cameo is het zesde boek in de serie. Elk boek bevat een compleet verhaal dat zich afspeelt tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog. De overkoepelende verhaallijn wordt aan het einde van de reeks afgesloten.

    Ik zat in de woonkamer van de boerderij voor het haardvuur en las het dossier van Vivienne Hernandez. Ze was 24 jaar en woonde in Londen waar ze, voordat de SOE haar rekruteerde, werkzaam was als telefoniste. Ze beheerste meerdere talen, hield van gymnastiek – net als Mimi – en van fietsen, schaatsen en het maken van kleding. Haar beoordelaars hadden ook genoteerd dat ze ‘wel van een feestje hield’.

    Ik had haar bij het vliegtuig opgehaald en zag toen meteen dat ze een elegante en gracieuze verschijning was. Ze was stijlvol, mooi – het complete pakket. Eigenlijk had ik meteen jaloers moeten worden, maar in plaats daarvan moest ik glimlachen toen ik eraan terugdacht. Ik mocht haar wel.

    De Franse echtgenoot van Vivienne was omgekomen toen hij vocht voor het Vrije Franse Leger in Senegal. Haar twee jaar oude dochter had ze thuis achtergelaten bij gastouders. Vader en dochter hadden elkaar nooit ontmoet. Dat was triest en kwam me bekend voor. De moeder van Vivienne was Engels, haar vader Frans. Ze hadden gewoond bij de Frans-Spaanse grens en ze waren, toen de nazi’s binnenvielen, via de Pyreneeën gevlucht. Ik kende die route goed.

    Ik verscheurde het dossier van Vivienne tot kleine snippers die ik vervolgens in het vuur gooide. Binnen enkele seconden waren ze tot as verbrand, verteerd door de oranje vlammen. Ik vroeg me af wat Guy van Vivienne zou vinden. Dat zou ik snel genoeg ontdekken als hij terug was van zijn reis naar de kust. Ik vroeg me af hoe ze in ons team zou passen. Als een tijdelijke vervanging voor Mimi voorzag ik geen problemen.

    Achteraf terugkijkend zou ik die inschatting beschouwen als een enorme vergissing.

She leaves all the others standing.""Hannah Howe's writing style reminds you of the Grandmasters of private detective fiction - Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler and Robert B. Parker.""Sam is an endearing character. Her assessments of some of the people she encounters will make you laugh at her wicked mind. At other times, you'll cry at the pain she's suffered.""Sam is the kind of non-assuming heroine that I couldn't help but love.""Sam's Song was a wonderful find and a thoroughly engaging read. The first book in the Sam Smith mystery series, this book starts off as a winner!""Sam is an interesting and very believable character.""Gripping and believable at the same time, very well written.""Sam is a great heroine who challenges stereotypes.""Hannah Howe is a fabulous writer.""I can't wait to read the next in the series!""The Big Chill is light reading, but packs powerful messages.""This series just gets better and better.""What makes this book stand well above the rest of detective thrillers is the attention to the little details that makes everything so real.""Sam is a rounded and very real character.""Howe is an author to watch, able to change the tone from light hearted to more thoughtful, making this an easy and yet very rewarding read. Cracking!""Fabulous book by a fabulous author-I highly recommended this series!""Howe writes her characters with depth and makes them very engaging.""I loved the easy conversational style the author used throughout. Some of the colourful ways that the main character expressed herself actually made me laugh!""I loved Hannah Howe's writing style -- poignant one moment, terrifying the next, funny the next moment. I would be on the edge of my seat praying Sam wouldn't get hurt, and then she'd say a one-liner or think something funny, and I'd chuckle and catch my breath. Love it!""Sam's Song is no lightweight suspense book. Howe deals with drugs, spousal abuse, child abuse, and more. While the topics she writes about are heavy, Howe does a fantastic job of giving the reader the brutal truth while showing us there is still good in life and hope for better days to come."
