A Bodyguard of Lies
by Donna Del Oro
Blurb:
An FBI agent hunts for an infamous Nazi spy--and risks more than he bargained for.
Handsome FBI agent Jake Bernstein is recruited by MI5 to go undercover in England and Ireland and investigate a naturalized American grandmother. His task: Discover if she was the notorious Nazi spy, Hummingbird, who caused the deaths of thousands during World War II. His obstacles: A dangerous, Irish neo-Nazi organization, the woman’s lovely blond granddaughter, and sixty years’ worth of lies. His priority: Stay alive!

Review: 5 Stars
This book evoked many memories for me, of things my Mother told me she had gone through WWII, stories that made me cry and try to understand what is in the heart of men.
Yes the book evoked memories of atrocities committed during the war and War is hell, no matter which war, the ones in the past and the ones now, War is hell on everyone.
The Author wove a wonderful story of many people involved in this story, moving through time in the past where Clare Eberhard/Mary McCoy/Snider and her lover/handler begin their story, Death and treason is the begining.
In the present Jake Bernstein FBI get involved with MI5 and agencies here in the States, they all want Mary who is now a Grandmother and is suspect. Jake joins them on a tour through England Wales and Ireland with the sole purpose of uncovering the truth, and as fate would have it falls in love with her Granddaughter Meg.
The twists in the story are great and I would say could have happened, the world of spies and war is never changing, just the times. Wont say much more as I do not want to ruin the book for others.
I am glad I read the book to the end, well I had to, the Author wove a wonderful story, that I loved.
