Inspired by true stories. in 1940, Churchill hastily creates "SOE," a spy organization to disrupt the Nazi war machine. Its mission in France: place spies everywhere to conduct sabotage and subversion. But the British don't have experienced spies for this new type of warfare, and SOE must resort to recruiting women. The "spymistress" for SOE, Vera Atkins (who must hide that she is Jewish to function in the anti-Semitic spy world), recruits two unusual candidates: Virginia Hall, an ambitious American with a wooden leg, and Noor Inayat Khan, a Muslim pacifist. Together, these women form a sisterhood while entangled in dangerous missions to build a new spy network and stop Hitler. Written by Sarah Megan Thomas, author
