About this listen

The Lost Girls of Paris is an emotional story of friendship and betrayal during the second world war, inspired by true events – from the international best seller Pam Jenoff. 

1940s. With the world at war, Eleanor Trigg leads a mysterious ring of female secret agents in London. Twelve of these women are sent to aid the resistance. They never return home. 

1946. Passing through Grand Central Station, Grace Healey finds an abandoned suitcase tucked beneath a bench. The case is filled with a dozen photographs, each of a different woman. Setting out to find the women behind the pictures, Grace is drawn into the mystery of the lost girls of Paris. And as she delves deeper into the secrets of the past, she uncovers a story of fierce friendship, unthinkable bravery – and, ultimately, the worst kind of betrayal.

A fantastic and believable story. The characters are well defined and distinct. The setting for the story was not something I was familiar with,although I had heard of SOE I didn’t appreciate the work that was done. It also begs lots of questions about the aftermath of war and price paid by so many that were involved. My only criticism is of the narration, in particular the terrible Irish or was it Welsh or maybe Mancunian accents that changed at times mid sentence. That aside a fabulous listen. Highly recommended.
