A good read
I enjoyed this book. It tells the story of a girl who goes to Morocco to meet her estranged grandmother. The book is very descriptive and is full of twists and turns.Very enjoyable.

Immersive read
Dinah Jefferies has been a favourite author of mine, since 2014 when her debut novel 'The Separation'. was published. Over the years she has transported me with her vivid descriptive prose to some wonderful locations, some which I have been lucky enough to visit and other places I now wish to see for myself. This time it was to Morocco, somewhere I have been fortunate to visit and her descriptions are certainly evocative of my time spent there.The story continues as Vicky, one of the younger generation of the Baudin family, travels to Marrakech to meet her grandmother for the first time. A dangerous place in the sixties, the visit turns out to be quite an adventure. Bringing together protagonists from the earlier books this final volume of the trilogy reveals some long hidden family secrets.As with the previous volumes in this trilogy, it is a captivating read that transports the reader to Morocco which I can recommend to anyone that enjoys an immersive read. It stands alone but I feel more enjoyable if you have read the earlier novels.

A little disappointing
I loved the descriptions of Marrachech, however the plot was not strong and not very convincing. Too many unnecessary characters. Not Dinah Jefferies best book.It was the third in the trilogy but would have been better being a stand alone book with different characters.

Interesting story set in Morocco
A most enjoyable read with interesting characters and a good storyline. Although it is the third book in a trilogy this was not a problem and it is perfectly acceptable as a stand alone story. However, I now look forward to reading the other two.I read this book during many hours spent in a car a travelling around Morocco from Marrakesh to Tangiers, through the desert and across the Atlas mountains and it was great to be able to relate to some of the places mentioned in the book.Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for providing a review copy.

Nicely tying all ends
Last in the trilogy. Has an ending which lets you know what all the main characters are up , so you are not get hanging. Once again a good read. If you like this author you won't be disappointed.

Dinah’s books are always exciting
I have read, and re-read all Dinah Jefferies’ books but was a little disappointed with this latest one (Daughters of War No.3). Somehow I was not drawn into the story, as I have been with all the others, and did not feel sympathetic towards a couple of the main characters. Nevertheless, I will re-read this before long and hope that I will look at it in a slightly different light.
