The Red Signal

There is something comforting about being in a terrifying situation and being rescued from an unexpected source. That Happens to Hilda when she is caught between two trains. I love it how she could find security in knowing someone was looking out for her even though, at first, neither of them knew the dangers she would face. I think this book is a very accurate representation of how proud Americans were of the USA a century ago.

I Have Read A Lot Of GLH's Books. THIS IS ONE OF HER BEST--IN MY OPINION. I Love Any Inspriational Or Christian Romance Novels With A WW I Or WW II Setting.

Hilda Lessing is the heroine of The Red Signal. The book takes place during World War I, Hilda is sent by her uncle Otto to work on a farm run by German immigrants. She meets the hero of the story Dan Stevens almost at once when he saves her from being ran over by a train. Shortly after arriving at the farm she realizes not everyone is as they seem and in factthey are spies for Germany. The book is a good, I enjoyed the action and the understated romance between Hilda and Dan. The only complaint I have is that Hilda is extremely naive, but I excuse this because the book was written in 1919. Mrs. Hill wrote many books but this is one of my favorites.

A young woman takes a job on an isolated farm. So what's the big deal about that? Well, it turns out that her employers are a bunch of German spys and our young heroine finds herself in a whole passle of trouble and more danger and excitement than anyone would ever wish for. She has to make a daring escape, before she can take refuge in the arms of the man who has promised to protect her. I'd tell you more, but I might ruin it. But if you like mystery, wild chase scenes, and romance, you might like to check out this book. The hero is everything a girl could ever dream of...

This is a great book, full of suspense and excitement! If you're writing a mystery novel but got stumped, or if you're just looking for something good to read, get "The Red Signal"! Anything by Grace Livingston Hill is sure to be good!

Sent by her uncle to work on a truck farm during WWI, pretty, gentle Hilda Lessing uncovers a nest of German spies and risks her life to bring them to justice. Her faith and courage bring the admiration of a young train engineer.
