Publisher's Synopsis
During some of the darkest days of the Second World War, a young Frenchwoman living as a mother and housewife in England, desolate at the plight of her native and adopted countries, left her ordinary life to become a British agent. Working covertly in France to aid the Resistance, she entered a murky and deadly world of espionage and double-dealing. Betrayed to the Germans, she endured torture by the Gestapo and the hell of Ravensbrück... Yet she managed to retain a compassion, a grace and a spiritedness that mystified her captors and, living to see the liberation of Europe, she kept her fundamental trust in goodness.
