This is the incredible true story of the greatest spy you’ve never heard of - as told to the author by the woman herself. At the outbreak of World War Two, Nancy Wake’s glamorous life in the South of France seemed far removed from the fighting. But when her husband was called up for military service, Nancy felt she had just as much of a duty to fight for freedom. By 1943, her fearless undercover work even in the face of personal tragedy had earned her a place on the Gestapo’s "most wanted" list.

In the summer of 1942, he led his Axis army swiftly and terrifyingly toward Alexandria, with the goal of overrunning the entire Middle East. Each step was informed by detailed updates on British positions. The Nazis, somehow, had a source for the Allies' greatest secrets.

But despite the many works—journalism, books, plays and novels—devoted to Anne’s story, none has ever conclusively explained how these eight people managed to live in hiding undetected for over two years—and who or what finally brought the Nazis to their door.

When Queen Mary died in 1953, James Pope-Hennessy was commissioned to write an official biography of her - unusual for a queen consort. Queen Mary's life, contrary to popular belief, was essentially dramatic, and she played a far more important and influential role in the affairs of the British monarchy than her public image might have otherwise suggested. Using material from the Royal Archives, private papers, and Queen Mary's personal diaries and letters, Pope-Hennessy's biography was a remarkable portrait of a remarkable woman and received rave reviews across the press.

The tycoon had close ties to the US government, and he soon asked Elizebeth to apply her language skills to an exciting new venture: code breaking. There she met the man who would become her husband, groundbreaking cryptologist William Friedman. Though she and Friedman are in many ways the Adam and Eve of the NSA, Elizebeth's story, incredibly, has never been told.

When Adolf Hitler came to power in 1933, approximately 160,000 Jews called Berlin home. By 1943 less than 5,000 remained in the nation's capital, the epicenter of Nazism, and by the end of the war, that number had dwindled to 1,000. All the others had died in air raids, starved to death, committed suicide, or been shipped off to the death camps. In this captivating and harrowing book, Leonard Gross details the real-life stories of a dozen Jewish men and women who spent the final 27 months of World War II underground, hiding in plain sight.

Selma van de Perre was 17 when World War II began. Until then, being Jewish in the Netherlands had not been an issue. But by 1941 it had become a matter of life or death. On several occasions, Selma barely avoided being rounded up by the Nazis. While her father was summoned to a work camp and eventually hospitalized in a Dutch transition camp, her mother and sister went into hiding - until they were betrayed in June 1943 and sent to Auschwitz.

Historia
In February 1991, Robert Maxwell triumphantly sailed into Manhattan harbor on his yacht, the Lady Ghislaine, to buy the ailing New York Daily News. Taxi drivers stopped their cabs to shake his hand, children asked for his autograph, and patrons of the hottest restaurant in Manhattan gave him a standing ovation while he dined. Ten months later, Maxwell disappeared off that same yacht in the middle of the night and was later found dead in the water. As John Preston reveals in this revealing biography, Maxwell’s death was as mysterious as his remarkable life.

In 1942, in a quiet village in the leafy English Cotswolds, a thin, elegant woman lived in a small cottage with her three children and her husband, who worked as a machinist nearby. Ursula Burton was friendly but reserved, and spoke English with a slight foreign accent. By all accounts, she seemed to be living a simple, unassuming life. Her neighbors in the village knew little about her. They didn’t know that she was a high-ranking Soviet intelligence officer. They didn’t know that her husband was also a spy, or that she was running powerful agents across Europe.

A truly admirable individual
After reading “Code Name Helene” and finding out the subject of that book had written her own autobiography I knew I had to read it. I did and it did not disappoint!
I enjoyed it for its subject matter and its forthright style. The story of how Nancy Wake, an Australian woman living in France, came to be an active resistance worker in WWII is really fascinating.
Her style is blunt, direct - it resonates as if a straightforward person were telling you about their experiences directly with no literary artifacts.
Nancy becomes a real person to the reader very fast and her matter of fact way of dealing with the story is bracing.
A truly admirable individual!

Amazing story of ordinary people doing the extraordinary for their country and in Nancy’s case her adopted country
The way Nancy’s account was read was bland and read too quickly without feeling; so for me, making Nancy sound a bit flippant and unfeeling about certain tragedies in her life, for example the death of her husband.

Amazing woman but the voice was
Too too fast. And no up and downs. Just reading it through word for word. No expressions and just too fast. I slowed it down but didn’t help. Just that same voice. There’s so many other voices that are so much better. Why hers? The one who did Helene (her story too) was 100% amazing! No problem no bordem and pauses. This is just gooooooooo onnnn and onnnnn. I am so very disappointed. I really wanted to hear this.

She was so brave.
Good stories about brave women in WWII are usually remarkable. The French went through use so much during the war.
This did not disappoint.

A Fascinating Woman!
I first read “Code Name Helene,” which I recommend doing first - but both books are a wonderful telling of this remarkable woman’s story!

Unbelievable story
Although I became a little confused by all the names, this is an action-packed description of Ms. Wake’s experiences with the French Resistance during WWII. The woman had nerves of steel. It’s a fast-paced story that I felt was sometimes a short on details. However, I thoroughly enjoyed it and found it fascinating. The narrator was quite good, too. I could easily imagine she was Nancy Wake.
