Staying alive

"The SOE (Special Operations Executive) was an organisation employing exceptionally courageous men and women with nerves of ice and specialist skills. Rosie Ewing was an SOE wartime secret agent, and the essence of her story begins in the late autumn of 1942. A group codenamed Countryman were briefed by London to get a certain German out of the Vichy's hands. What they didn't know was that they were being sold out to the Gestapo. Of course, they were aware of betrayal as a constantly looming danger. All too many SOE networks had been 'blown', with agents disappearing into Gestapo cellars and the extermination camps. It was the dread every agent lived with, every minute of every day and night."--Publisher description.
