About this listen

World War II thriller in which two young girls, one a Resistance spy and the other a transport pilot, become unlikely best friends.

‘It’s like being in love, discovering your best friend.’

A British spy plane crashes in Nazi-occupied France. Its pilot and passenger are best friends. But just one of the girls has a chance at survival. Arrested by the Gestapo, 'Verity' is given a choice: reveal her mission or face a grisly execution. They’ll get the truth out of her. Only, it won’t be what they expect.

A visceral story of danger, resolve and survival, Code Name Verity shows just how far true friends will go to save each other. This updated edition features a brand-new short story, a retrospective from the author, a Q&A and more.
