Description
In June 1940, a covert new force, the SOE, was set up to wage a secret war of sabotage and subversion behind enemy lines. Only 26 female agents returned and none have ever told their story before. At age 23 Phyllis "Pippa" Latour travelled around the rural French countryside, concealing her codes in a hair tie and her Morse key underneath her bicycle seat, and sending crucial information back to Britain. Now for the first time, her story is told in full.
