Elizabeth De Mornay works undercover for the SOE but she is forced to run when someone blows her cover in Paris.
She moves on next to Lisbon, she adopts a new person and whole idenitity and is now to the world a French widow by the name of Solange Verin.
But still she is pursued by the Gestapo.
Her mission is to crack a German espionage ring that is aimed at disabling allied shipping.
But Elizabeth is in terrible danger the deeper she delves as someone is keeping a very close eye on her movements.
To the point this mission could be her last as she may not survive this deadly game of car and mouse.
This was brilliant and I enjoyed it even more knowing that though a fictional tale it gave a glimpse into the lives and undercover work of female wartime SOE operatives.
This is definitely one for the war thriller and just general historical fiction fans.
