The third in the French Resistance series

In Nazi-occupied France the assassination of a new German commandant by Amalie de Gruchy sparks a crisis in both Nazi Germany and the British secret service.

Supposedly killed in a raid a few months previously, Amalie is now being pursued by, amongst others, the head of the German secret police and the mysterious Joanna Jonnson, a spy with a murky past.

Amalie’s beautiful sister, Liane de Gruchy — also thought to have been killed months before — comes out of hiding to help in the search for Amalie.

But soon the Resistance finds itself with a much bigger problem as the Germans uncover British plans which, in the wrong hands, could change the course of the war…
