This is a compelling amazing story of strength, courage and bravery, a story of three woman who put themselves on the line to help with the efforts of World War 11 they go beyond the call of duty to help win the war. MS Lane has bought to life these woman in a truly fabulous story that I loved from start to finish and cannot highly recommend enough.

Rose is French and she has always been strong willed, but when she loses her husband while he is helping the Resistance, Rose is determined to take over from him and starts helping serviceman to get back home from her little part of France, this leads to meeting other woman who are doing the same thing and brings her into the Resistance.

Hazel is English and engaged to be married but when her fiancĂ© goes off to war Hazel wants to help where she can just because she is a woman should not stop her, and it doesn’t she ends being trained by the best and is soon parachuted into France to do her bit with the Resistance and this is where she meets her dear friend Rose.

Sophia is German and what she has gone through with the Nazi’s is unthinkable, but she keeps her boyfriend Alex a Jew safe for a while before they escape, Alex to Sweden, her to London then France and becomes one of the Resistances best, known as The Little Fox, it is hard to keep Sophia down and when she teams up with Rose and Hazel they become a team not to be tangled with.

This story will have your heart pumping as the Ladies go undercover and track through the night to help destroy bridges and get under the skin of the Nazis and save soldiers and airmen among a lot of other things, working in their little bands together helping the war effort, I could barely put this one down, I was cheering them one as I turned the pages and yes there were tears, and there is heartbreak I wouldn’t expect anything else in a book of this type, but the ending had me crying again this time so happy for them, and I send a big cheer to woman who did this during World Wars they are true heroes. Thank you MS Lane for a keeper it is going to stay with me for a long time to come.

5/5 stars for a fabulous story
