💥It is a historical fiction based on the Second World War. The author has created a brilliant picture of the situation in France during the same. I was spellbound after reading about the risks taken by those, fighting against the Germans. The author also gives us an idea about the aggressive training undergone by the SOE agents. They were even instructed to swallow cyanide if caught by the Germans, lest they cannot endure anymore torture and spill the beans.
💥Yvonne Rudellat was a real life example of "It's never too late to pursue your dreams". The story of her journey in becoming the first female SOE agent deserves praise. Due to her determination, she was able to lead dangerous missions against the Germans despite being middle-aged.
💥This was an enjoyable read for me. It has brought to life, the life and deeds of a woman who was lost in history. I will surely recommend this book to all those who are interested in historical fiction.
