From a unique and singular voice comes the incredible true story of the last surviving undercover British female operative in WW2.

Review
Let me start this off by saying the narrator, Jilly Bond, nailed this book. I felt like I was listening to Pippa herself tell her story. So, if you have the chance, get this on audio. But, you cannot go wrong with this book either way.
Pippa Latour had a very unique life. And she kept it all secret from her family. Until, one of her kids discovered her past on the internet. She decided to come clean after decades of silence.
I am amazed at Pippa and everything she did in the war. And I love how she is just matter of fact about her experiences.
Pippa was an incredibly strong and resilient young woman. Not to mention very intelligent. She spoke several languages, could jump out of airplanes and risked her life at every turn.
