I’ve read a few books about Nancy Wake but this one is different. This one includes a German who taunts her every chance he gets - from arresting her husband to putting a 5 million Franc bounty on her head. She narrowly escaped to England, only to join the SOE, giving her another chance in France. She parachutes into Auvergne, stepping into her most challenging assignment yet - gain the respect and trust of the toughest bunch of Resistance fighters.
