“An extraordinary profile of immense courage and daring.”—Chanel Cleeton, New York Times bestselling author of Before We Left Cuba

“If you only read one WWII book this year, make it this one."—Natasha Lester, New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Orphans

In the depths of war, she would defy the odds to help liberate a nation…a gripping historical novel based on the remarkable true story of World War II heroine Virginia Hall, from the bestselling author of Hemingway’s Girl

France, March 1944. Virginia Hall wasn't like the other young society women back home in Baltimore—she never wanted the debutante ball or silk gloves. Instead, she traded a safe life for adventure in Europe, and when her beloved second home is thrust into the dark days of war, she leaps in headfirst.

Once she's recruited as an Allied spy, subverting the Nazis becomes her calling. But even the most cunning agent can be bested, and in wartime trusting the wrong person can prove fatal. Virginia is haunted every day by the betrayal that ravaged her first operation, and will do everything in her power to avenge the brave people she lost.

While her future is anything but certain, this time more than ever Virginia knows that failure is not an option. Especially when she discovers what—and whom—she's truly protecting. 20th Century Biographical Fiction Genre Fiction Historical Fiction Kadın Kurgu Kurgu Biyografi Savaş

This is an inspirational tale of courage in the face of adversity. At times I felt that I was in the room with the characters. This was due in no small part to the excellent narrator, who managed to pull off such a thoroughly believable variety of accents without falling victim to caricatures. Her timing and delivery did nothing short of heighten the impact of the author’s words.
The excellent descriptions of villages in war torn Europe and feelings of constant unease of someone walking an extremely tight line between life and death, torn between love and duty, was truly immersive.
I couldn’t listen to it on public transport because, even with headphones on, my fellow passengers would hear me spontaneously whoop for joy at every victory, sigh in disbelief at each tragedy (of which, dear reader, there are many), or laugh on the rare occasion it was called for.
The only criticism is that at times I forgot which village I was supposed to be in. Other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook and would highly recommend it.

Thoroughly immersive

This book was absolutely wonderful! It does complete and utter justice to those who fought tirelessly against Nazi occupation. The story is wonderfully written and the characters are fabulous.

One of the best books I’ve listened to in a long time!

Beautifully Written- An Amazing Book!
