Ken Follett’s The Key to Rebecca took readers and critics by storm when first published forty years ago. Today, it remains one of the best espionage novels ever written. A brilliant and ruthless Nazi master agent is on the loose in Cairo. His mission is to send Rommel’s advancing army the secrets that will unlock the city’s doors. In all of Cairo, only two people can stop him. One is a … him. One is a down-on-his-luck English officer no one will listen to. The other is a vulnerable young Jewish girl. . . .

This is my favorite Ken Follett book. I reread this one every year or two. As far as spy thrillers go, this one is top-notch! I highly recommend this read.
This book was awesome. I loved it. There are so many after this one. I love Follet anyway. Great book and check out the rest of them. 🙂
Read it long ago. Love Ken Follett from WAY, WAY back
Been a long time, but very memorable!
I read this years ago, but it never gets old. Great read.
Well written plot
Ken Follett is an amazing author. In spite of the many books he has written, each one is a new and different adventure. Another to add to that list!
I’m re-reading this classic thriller. Ken Follett knows how to tell a great story!
I read this many moons ago in college and it remains my favorite Ken Follett book, even though I’ve thoroughly enjoyed all his novels. It is an action packed thriller that takes place during World War II on a lighthouse island off the coast of England. A wonderful read, not to be missed. Also check out the movie made of this book starring Donald Sutherland…definitely one of his best efforts.
Excellent
This author knows how to tell a story!
A worry read
Read years ago, but remember it was very good.
By far Follet’s best. Started it at 8 in the evening….MISTAKE!! Finished over breakfast.. Action suspense intrigue Packed in a great read. 10 out of 5 stars.
