About this listen

A SECRETARY LIKE NO OTHER
IN AN EPIC SPANNING 40 YEARS

All Hanna Fischer ever wanted to do was to study physics under the great Albert Einstein.

But when, as a teenager in 1919, her life is suddenly turned upside-down, she is catapulted into a new and extraordinary life - as a secretary, a scientist, a sister and a spy.

From racist gangs in Berlin to gangsters in New York City, Nazis in the 1930s and Hitler's inner circle during the Second World War, Hanna will encounter some of history's greatest minds and most terrible moments, all while desperately trying to stay alive.

She is a most unique secretary and she will work for many bosses - from shrewd businessmen to vile Nazis, to the greatest boss of them all, Mr Albert Einstein...

Spanning forty years, this is the thrilling tale of a young woman propelled through history's most dangerous times. But read it carefully, because all may not be as it seems...

I anticipated a good fictional read by Matthew Reilly, but learnt much of history too - a pleasant surprise. But is the twists and turns of the story as history unfolds from a seemingly first person narrative that make it such a compelling read.

Narrator flows seamlessly from German accents to Irish, to American New Yorker. Made you feel like you were in the story. Well written jump abit back and forth at the start but was easy to follow and made sense at the end. A great stand-alone novel for Matthew Reilly.

Absolute masterpiece!
