Louisa had made it through the horrible war and then got word that her young cousin, Elizabeth, had been released from a concentration camp. Louisa felt she had no choice but to travel to Germany to bring Elizabeth back to the United States to live with her only remaining family. The trip, however, would be extremely dangerous. If caught, Louisa could be killed. She also had an ulterior motive because she had to check for the whereabouts of one of her arch enemies.

There was one more person Louisa hated—this one she did not want to see. She did, however, come face-to-face with her former fiancé, a man she once loved but now hated immensely. He would be a force to reckon with throughout this book. Louisa was now happily married and carried an even bigger secret within her heart.

I went straight from Copper Star into Copper Fire without a break. I was so involved in the characters and events at that point I only wanted to continue. The circumstances we were introduced to be best not unfolded since I would recommend you read the first book before reading this one. This book was another compelling look at history during an atrocious time. There was romance but it was secondary to the historical suspense told so well by this author.

By this time I had come to appreciate Ms. Fisher’s unique ability to make me like her first-person point of view. Her characters were such strong, vibrant individuals that it was impossible to not be engrossed in the outcome of their adventures. Much of the action seemed unbelievable; however, I know that it did happen. That made the outcome of the book even more important.

I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys historical romantic suspense with a taste for the dramatic. This would not be for everyone because of content surrounding the wartime activity. However, it was not offensive. I look forward to finding and reading more from this author.
