Publisher's Summary

Two otherwise ordinary women become spies in WWII France in this sweeping novel of historical suspense by New York Times bestselling author Kelly Rimmer

Twenty-five years after the end of the war, ageing British SOE operative Noah Ainsworth is reflecting on the secret agent who saved his life when a mission went wrong during his perilous, exhilarating years in occupied France. He never knew her real name, nor whether she survived the war.

His daughter Charlotte begins a search for answers. What follows is the story of Fleur and Chloe, two otherwise ordinary women who in 1943 are called up by the SOE for deployment in France. Taking enormous risks with very little information or resources, the women have no idea they're at the mercy of a double agent within their ranks who's causing chaos.

As Charlotte's search for answers continues, new suspicions are raised about the identity of the double agent, with unsettling clues pointing to her father.

From the bestselling Australian author of The Warsaw Orphan, this emotionally compelling novel is inspired by real-life female WWII agents including Violette Szabo and Diana Rowden, whose incredible stories have never before been brought to listeners.

Riveting and beautiful, well researched and perfect

Incredible Bravery

This book is incredibly well researched, written and told. What a horrific life women as SOE had. I can't imagine the persecution they went through by the Germans. I had no idea

The narration is appalling.

Such as “time liiiines”. And somethinggggg and harsh and nasally.
It is such a shame. The author should not be reading her books as her voice sounds like a harsh smokers voice and I think it ruined a great story.
