Operation Blackbird (Brass Compass Series Book 2) by Ellen Butler – Review by Sarah King

Operation Blackbird by Ellen Butler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Being a spy during the Cold War came with all sorts of challenges. Miriam had experienced more than one of them. Her team’s current assignment is to relocate a defecting scientist and his family to America. But, things can never be that simple. They must evade other spies from multiple agents all while staying alive.

This book is the second in the series though it can be read as a standalone. I enjoyed Butler’s ability to weave an amazing story while keeping many things from the story true to the period and her characters having depth. I can’t wait to read more by this author. I would suggest this book to others.
