Two women, two countries. Nothing in common but a call to fight.

A heart-stopping new novel based on the extraordinary true stories of an American socialite and a British secret agent whose stunning acts of courage collide in the darkest hours of World War II.

1940. In a world newly burning with war, andin spite of her American family’s wishes, Virginia d’Albert-Lake decides to stay in occupied France with her French husband. She’s sure that if they keep their heads down, they’ll survive. But is surviving enough?

Nineteen-year-old Violette Szabo has seen the Nazis’ evil up close and is desperate to fight them. But when she meets the man who’ll change her life only for tragedy to strike, Violette’s adrift. Until she enters the radar of Britain’s secret war organization—the Special Operations Executive—and a new fire is lit in her as she decides just how much she’s willing to risk to enlist.

As Virginia and Violette navigate resistance, their clandestine deeds come to a staggering halt when they are brought together at Ravensbrück concentration camp.

The decisions they make will change their lives, and the world, forever.

A lot of people owe their lives to these 2 women

We will never know this side of heaven the people and their families who owe their very lives to violette and
Virginia. My only criticism was the book was a little too long and I wish I had listened to the ABRIDGED version. The. First part of the novel seemed to go on and on and on. I almost returned the book but glad I didn’t . Violette especially was fierce and nothing would stop her. I learned a lot about the French resistance. And the extent of man’s cruelty to man knows no boundary. Thank you ms roebuck for this heart felt book

Absolutely Fantastic

If you are interested in learning about WWII. The Holocaust and the French Resistance-this is a perfect novel for you to listen to.

Brutal and awe-inspiring

This book has been in my library for weeks. I read reviews and spoke with people. Many stories came to me about the people in this book and I was afraid to listen to the book itself. I knew it was intense, difficult, sad and more. Wasn't even sure I could "do it" but it was worth every minute. The story is amazing. The Narrator introduces the two characters to us and at different times I'm not sure I even like them, however, Ms. Hewitt portrayal of all of the characters and her performance all the way through to the conclusion accentuates the value of Ms. Robuck's writing.

incredible

I am in awe of these women. I am so thankful you have done such an exceptional job at telling their stories. excellent.

Gripping story of courage by two amazing women in WWII

These two women, Violette and Vivian who served in the War effort in different ways and ended up being captured and enprisoned in together, first in Paris and then in Ravensbrück, the infamous Women’s Camp. Well written, and brought to life in Audio Book format, which I listened to while traveling to and from the VA medical clinic and hospital located 4 hours round trip from my rural home. This is the second novel about WWII that I have read and in between, I have studied that particular Death Camp in the non-fiction genre. The women who survived truly were courageous, as were the women who perished after a miserable end to their lives. I was riveted the entire time I listened to this story. Highly recommend!
