Publisher's Synopsis
1939. War has been declared and spymaster Fitzroy wastes no time in preparing his goddaughter, Hope, for a secret mission. Hope has the potential to be one of British Intelligence's greatest agents, but when she is ousted from an all-male think tank and relegated to the typing pool, even she starts to doubt herself. Meanwhile, Hope's rebellious friend, Bernie, announces her engagement to a man Hope does not trust, and Hope fears that her father is dying. Then comes Dunkirk and the threat of invasion intensifies. Hope is sent to a secret base, where she joins a group of auxiliary units that are expected to fight to the death should invasion occur.
