Discover the incredible, untold story of the fearless women who worked as spies during WWII, infiltrating occupied France to sabotage the German war machine. Facing constant danger, these brave agents defied the odds and risked their lives to change the course of history. During the war, Prime Minister Churchill desperately needed foreign agents, and though women were not allowed to fight on the front line, they could be sent behind enemy lines as spies. Vera Atkins was put in charge of the female spies, and when many of them went missing during the war, never to return, she was determined to find out their fate – in defiance of the British authorities. Vera’s files were kept sealed until after she died, but the story of the female spies and the spymistress who led them, which has remained secret for over 50 years, can now be revealed.
