They said women were a liability in war. They were wrong...
April 1942
A dangerous call to duty…
Constance Hughes has always felt on the outside, never quite good enough, always doubting herself. So when she is asked to participate in a dangerous undercover mission to help the war effort, Connie is fearful – what if she fails and lets her friends – and country - down?
Behind enemy lines…
A fluent linguist, Connie is perfect for the task ahead, but it means being dropped into France – currently under German occupation. Getting there is dangerous, the mission fraught, and if Connie is captured, it will mean certain death. But determined to do her duty, she agrees.
The prospect of no return home.
Connie knows rural France well, but her mission isn’t as straightforward as she hoped. With German soldiers everywhere, Connie is under intense pressure. And when she meets a fellow British soldier hiding in the woods she is torn between helping him and saving herself.
But with only herself to rely on, Connie discovers a strength she never knew she had. And a new determination to get herself and the injured soldier home: mission accomplished.
A heart-stopping story of courage and the hidden heroines who risked everything to change the course of history. Inspired by the true-life stories of The Women's Secret Army. Perfect for fans of Kate Quinn and Lana Kortchik.
