A Woman of Intelligence by Karin Tenabe


Rina was an interpreter at the United Nations in New York in the late 1940s after the war. Then she met Tom, a gifted childrens surgeon with a moneyed background and fell in love. Now in the early 1950s she the mother of two trying to balance motherhood and society duties and feeling very bored. An opportunity  falls in her lap to help the FBI root out communists and she jumps at the chance!


This is a fascinating look at 1950s life in New York. It is well researched and enjoyable to read. 


I have voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from NetGalley. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.
