Kate Atkinson's writing is shot through with wry British humor, the sidelong type that keeps you guessing a bit about what is actually going on. Distinctive characters who each have a secret or two up their sleeves. Based on some actual happenings in Great Britain during World War Two and afterwards. A very enjoyable read.
