This is a compelling and amazing story of strength, courage and bravery. A story of three women who put themselves on the line to help with the efforts of World War II. They go beyond the call of duty to help win the war. Ms Lane has brought to life these women in a truly fabulous story that I loved from start to finish and cannot highly recommend enough.
Rose is French, and she has always been strong-willed, but when she loses her husband while he is helping the Resistance, Rose is determined to take over from him. She starts helping serviceman get back home from her little part of France. This leads to her meeting other women who are doing the same thing and brings her into the Resistance.
Hazel is English and engaged to be married, but when her fiancé goes off to war, Hazel wants to help where she can. Just because she is a woman should not stop her, and it doesn’t. She ends being trained by the best and is soon parachuted into France to do her bit with the Resistance, and this is where she meets her dear friend Rose.
Sophia is German and what she has gone through with the Nazi’s is unthinkable, but she keeps her boyfriend, Alex, a Jew safe for a while before they escape. Alex to Sweden, her to London, then France and becomes one of the Resistance. She is best known as The Little Fox, and it is hard to keep Sophia down. When she teams up with Rose and Hazel, they become a team not to be tangled with.
This story will have your heart pumping as the ladies go undercover, track through the night to help destroy bridges, and get under the skin of the Nazis, and save soldiers and airmen among a lot of other things, working in their little bands together helping the war effort. I could barely put this one down. I was cheering them on as I turned the pages, and yes, there were tears, and there was heartbreak. I wouldn’t expect anything else in a book of this type, but the ending had me crying again. This time so happy for them, and I send a big cheer to the women who did this during World Wars. They are true heroes. Thank you Ms Lane for a keeper. It is going to stay with me for a long time to come.
