This was a great book! I listened to the audiobook and I really enjoyed it. This is a great historical fiction book and I would recommend it to anyone who likes to read about WW II. I love how this is based on a true story. this was quite an adventure! This is a great book to empower women.

Yvonne Rudellat was the first female SOE-trained agent to go to France and according to the official historian of the SOE (Special Operations Executive), M.R.D. Foot Rudellat was "cheerful" and "fluffy" and with "steady nerves and good sense" Rudellat was an incredible woman to memorialise in this phenomenal novel and Audrey Blake has done her justice by writing an outstanding account

Narrated by Amy Scanlon, the audiobook was absolutely gripping and I listened throughout one day, rapt, intrigued and inspired. Scanlon is a fantastic narrator and this is the second narration I have heard from this outstanding talent. Versatile, emotive, perfect pace. A great sound

Audrey Blakes writing style is powerful, concise and immersive. Blake is an exceptional storyteller and paints a highly illustrative, vivid narrative, especially at moments of high drama throughout this tumultuous era (specifically the first flight and the bomb had me utterly on tenterhooks). Blake writes strong character development and by eckers Yvonne's husband and handler had me saying a few choice words!

I would absolutely recommend this book to all lovers of historical fiction, especially as this book is based on a true heroine of WWII
