Description
As the free world crumbles beneath Hitler's jackboot, the French Resistance is depending on these women to change the course of history... When Francine Agazarian's husband Jack asks her to join him in becoming a spy with the Special Operations Executive (SOE), she reluctantly accepts. But Francine soon discovers that being an enemy agent in Occupied France is even more dangerous than she expected. Can she convince Jack to return with her to the safety of England before it's too late? Andree Borrel is prepared to do whatever it takes to help the Allies and quickly advances to becoming second-in-command of the most important espionage network in France. As the vast circuit keeps expanding, it catches the attention of the Führer himself, who will stop at nothing to annihilate it. As the SOE's eldest woman recruit, Yvonne Rudellat has plenty of experience. Her job is to rendezvous with the newly landed agents and assist them in starting their missions. But one newcomer threatens to destroy everything she's worked so hard to accomplish. Noor Inayat Khan was born an Indian Princess. Although she is a pacifist, she is determined to help stop Hitler at any cost. Though some of her SOE instructors think she is unqualified, Noor becomes the first female wireless operator to be infiltrated into France. Will she be able to outwit the Gestapo or fall prey to them? If you like Ken Follet's Jackdaws, Kate Quinn's The Alice Network, and Sarah Rose's D-Day Girls, you won't be able to put down this meticulously researched tale of love, honor, and deception.
