Her Secret Soldier Book CoverHer Secret Soldier is a World War 2 novel filled with mystery and adventure. It tells the story of a lonely 18-year-old girl living in a remote part of England whose life is forever changed when she discovers an injured German spy in the ancient woodland behind her home. Parts of the novel are also set in Toronto, and Algonquin Park. The novel is intended for adult readers, but the content is entirely suited to anyone aged 12+

Advance reviews of Her Secret Soldier have been excellent!

One NetGalley reviewer wrote: “I started reading at 6pm on a Friday, slept for three hours, made a pot of coffee and picked up the book because I simply had to keep reading. A book rarely calls to me like Her Secret Soldier… a five star read, all round.”

Julie’s book is now available in paperback, for Kindle or on Audible. Check out HerSecretSoldier.com
