Seventeen-year-old Frankie Franconi falls in love with charismatic British officer Nick Harper as quickly and certainly as the bomb that falls on their shelter.He is impressed by her good looks and intelligence, and the fact that, like him, she speaks fluent Italian.

He gives her a business card with a Baker Street address, and suggests she put her skills to good use.Within a month, Frankie has joined the FANYs and started her training. Stationed first in England, then Africa and finally Italy, Frankie and her fellow recruits work tirelessly decoding messages from agents in the field by day, and enjoying the wartime parties at night. But when she signs the Official Secrets Act she has no idea of the danger, adventure and terrible choices that are in store.War might have brought them together, but will secrets tear them apart?Based on true stories of fearless women secret agents - and their tales of bravery, betrayal and love - this is perfect for readers of The Nightingale, Kate Quinn and Amanda Lees.Readers love Hilary Green's' An absolutely cracking read ' Amazon reviewer 5 STARS'Felt like I was in France and had to hold my breath at crucial moments as it was so real!'
