She was flagrant in her traveling from country to country using her dancing and acting as cover. She had lovers in all countries from both sides of the conflict. She used her Dutch nationally to explain how she could legitimately have friends and lovers on both sides as the Netherlands was a neutral in World War I.
One humourous scene took place when the French Military officers went to her hotel to arrest her after they were convinced they had proof she was a spy. When they entered her room, they found her re-cling on a couch in the nude. Despite their embarrassment and requests for her to get dressed, she conducted the interview in the nude. Then she proceeded to get dressed in front of them having them help with tying scarfs, etc.
Her execution was conducted in the French military manner and is well described here.
