Publisher's Summary:
The Special Operations Executive (SOE), set up by Winston Churchill in 1941, saw its role in France as helping the Resistance by recruiting and training guerrilla fighters. Thirty-nine female agents were trained alongside the men, learning how to disappear into the background and how to kill a man with their bare hands.
Once trained they were infiltrated behind the lines. Some of the women went on to lead thousands of Resistance fighters while others were arrested, brutally interrogated and sent to concentration camps.
Critic Reviews:
"A fascinating, superbly researched and revelatory book." (William Boyd, best-selling author of Any Human Heart and Sweet Caress)
"Stroud has a storytellers eye for human detail." (Independent on Sunday)
"Written with genuine vigour, this book pays tribute to truly outstanding female bravery." (The Lady)
Members Reviews:
The women of the SOE proved to be as resilient ...
The women of the SOE proved to be as resilient and capable as the men. They didn't get breaks for being female. Incredible stories about a small, overlooked group.
