ELEGANT ESPIONAGE: WOMEN SPIES WHO GRACED THE SHADOWS OF WW2 - AND CONQUERED THEMby A.M. Kingston
November 2023 | Historical Fiction | 384 pages
Setting: Great Britain & Western Europe
The Gestapo lurked in hidden corners. Concentration camps were prepared for those considered superfluous or threatening. None felt safe under the heavy air of foreboding which hung over the lands.
Soldiers left their homes to risk their lives in the air and on the front lines, combatting the treachery that seemed to grow with each passing day. And yet, it wasn’t enough. The Allies needed spies with stealth and an unassuming air. They needed women.
This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of seven interesting and diverse women who stepped up and gave everything they had, some even down to their very lives.
Fictionalized accounts based on real historical sources.
Recommended by Jerri Fenton: Historical fiction explores the lives of seven courageous women who served as spies for the Allies. Their stories of survival and resistance to the invasion of Hitler and his Nazi regime.

FORMAT: Each person gives a SHORT overview of what they thought of the book - like, didn't like, etc.
Then discussion leader guides through more specific questions or topics. [You can often find specific book club questions online. There are also "generic" book club questions available. But the more you customize, the better the discussion. ]
