Liane de Gruchy is a formidable woman. A French aristocrat infamous for her beauty, and more importantly for her ties to the French Resistance. Though she is the most wanted woman in France, Liane has managed to evade capture – even as the war seemingly grows bleaker for the allies. Commanded by her controller and lover, Major John Barron of SIS, it seems they must once again join forces for the good of the allies.

Barron knows all too well that while Liane is alive, the Resistance has hope that France will finally rid the shackles of the Nazi regime. The allies have a plan – an extensive campaign to drive the Nazi forces out. But as D-Day approaches, Barron knows that the Gestapo are not too far behind them. While in Germany, it seems the seeds of disillusion are finally being sowed…

Based on the true historical events of World War Two, Alan Savage’s novel is an intense and action-packed war thriller. Perfect for fans of Alan Scholefield and Herman Wouk, The Brightest Day is an gripping story that sure is thrill and entertain.
