Untold stories of bravery and sacrifice from the Second World War.
SOE Heroines unveils the experiences of nearly forty female agents in Britain's Special Operations Executive (SOE) during World War II. Trained in everything from sabotage to spycraft, these courageous women were parachuted into France on highly dangerous missions to work with resistance movements both before and after D-Day.
Bernard O'Connor draws on recently declassified government documents, personnel files, mission reports, and memoirs to assess the successes and failures of these women, including Odette Sansom, Denise Colin, and Cécile Pichard. Discover their stories of espionage, resistance, and survival, and learn how they faced capture, torture, and execution with unwavering resolve. This is their story.
