Summary

Three women. One mission. Enemies everywhere.

May 1944. When spy Elisabeth de Mornay, code name Cécile, notices a coded transmission from an agent in the field does not bear his usual signature, she suspects his cover has been blown - something that is happening with increasing frequency. With the situation in occupied France worsening and growing fears that the Resistance has been compromised, Cécile is ordered behind enemy lines.

Having rendezvoused with her fellow agents, Léonie and Dominique, together they have one mission: help the Resistance destabilise German operations to pave the way for the Normandy landings.

But the life of a spy is never straightforward, and the in-fighting within the Resistance makes knowing who to trust ever more difficult. With their lives on the line, all three women will have to make decisions that could cost them everything - for not all their enemies are German.

I loved City of Spies, and this book is a terrific sequel in the series - I thoroughly enjoyed it!. Everything from the intricately woven plot, to the compelling characters, and historical attention to detail, provides a fantastic journey from start to finish for the listener. In addition, the narration of this book is superb and really helps you to get a more nuanced feel to the main character.

Great story full of drama. I had forgotten I had listened to her first book City of Spies. Had I remembered I would have read this book rather than listened to it. Kristin Atherton, the narrator, tries too hard and manages to make a good story into an irritating listen. Her over dramatic style is dreadful and completely spoilt it for me. A book really worth reading but not a good audiobook. I would not recommend it as an audible choice but great on kindle.

Hysterical narrator

Real nail biting drama. Great WW2 plot featuring the forgotten hero's, the women agents of SOE. Must have listen if you love historical fiction.

Simply Fantastic!
