"On March 23, 1944, as the allied forces prepared for D-Day, Britain’s most famous psychic, Helen Duncan-“Nell” to her family-stood in the dock of Britain’s highest criminal court accused of...witchcraft. It was a trial so bizarre Winston Churchill grumbled, “Why all this tomfoolery?” But the Prime Minister was not privy to the Military Intelligence agenda fueling the prosecution: Duncan’s séances were accurately revealing top-secret British ship movements. The authorities wanted “Hellish Nell” silenced. Using diaries, personal papers, interviews, and declassified documents, Nina Shandler resurrects this strange courtroom episode and the shadowy world of wartime secrets and psychics. Sometimes comic, sometimes tragic, The Strange Case of Hellish Nell is a true crime tale laced with supernatural phenomena and wartime intrigue.""Loose Lips Sink Ships." Did Helen Duncan really spill WWII secrets with help from the dead? If nothing else, an interesting case study on how far government is allowed to go to protect secrets during wartime.

Yes I've read every book listed here. That doesn't mean that I've always agreed with the content. I make a habit of reading things that are outside my comfort zone in an effort to try to understand people who are different than me.
That being said, if you have something negative to say, keep it to yourself and maybe read the book you're about to bash me about. You might learn something. If you want to start an honest conversation, feel more than welcome.
If you have a book recommendation, I'd love to hear it!
