title: Islands of Deception: Lying with the Enemy
author:  Constance Hood 
description: <div>KIRKUS REVIEW</div><div>A Jewish Dutchman leaves his native Holland in advance of Nazi occupation for the UnitedStates and is drawn into a world of wartime espionage.</div><div></div><div>Author Hood (Off the Tracks: A Beatnik Family Journey, 2014) paints a vivid picture of war-torn Europe and the epistemological distance between those who see the inevitable and those who turn a blind eye to Nazi aggression. Her knowledge of the period&apos;s politics is broad and her prose self-assured. The novel borrows from her father&apos;s life, and her loving attention to her protagonist, beautifully drawn, is evident throughout. Hans is a complex figure, patriotic but conflicted, unsure where his loyalties should lie.</div><div></div><div>A thrilling, sensitively conceived historical novel.</div><div></div>
