The Secret Stealers
by Jane Healey
A really good historical novel. I love female spies. It's sad that men thought that women couldn't be underhanded and devious (especially back then), but it sure helped a lot in WW2.
Anna is recruited by a friend of her fathers to join the OSS as a secretary. But she longs for more. She is recruited for a mission and she likes the sense of accomplishment she feels.
She becomes a very good member of the organization and gets some very pertinent information that gives to the liberation of France.
She gets to have 2 great loves. One darker ends in tragedy.
I live the inclusion of real life people in here: Julia Child, John Wayne (who wants to join to OSS but it's rejected because they think he'd be recognizable even overseas).
Historical fiction fans should definitely check this out!
